Belden Inc. C601103013 CAT6 Plus Cmr Patch Cord

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. C601103013 is a CAT6 Plus CMR-rated patch cord designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and light industrial environments. CMR (Communications Multipurpose Cable, Riser) rating means this cord meets fire-resistance requirements for vertical runs between building floors, making it suitable for in-wall and riser pathway routing. The orange jacket aids in visual cable management and circuit identification. This patch cord supports high-speed Ethernet data transmission and is built to CAT6 Plus performance standards, delivering reduced crosstalk and improved signal integrity over standard CAT6 cabling.

This patch cord is used in network closets, telecom rooms, and horizontal cabling runs where riser-rated cable is required by local codes. It is a solid choice for patching between patch panels and network switches, or for connecting workstation drops in commercial office, education, and institutional settings. Low-voltage technicians and data network installers are the primary trades handling this type of component.

Key Features

• CAT6 Plus performance standard for reduced crosstalk and improved signal integrity
• CMR riser rating meets fire-resistance requirements for vertical cable runs
• Orange jacket for easy visual identification and cable management
• Single unit packaging suitable for individual circuit patching
• Designed for structured cabling environments in commercial and institutional buildings

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard patch cord for use in CAT6 and CAT6E structured cabling systems with standard RJ45 keystone jacks and patch panels.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed low-voltage technicians following TIA-568 structured cabling standards and applicable local codes. Ensure all active network equipment is powered down or the relevant port is inactive before swapping patch cords in live environments. Avoid sharp bends or kinking the cable, as exceeding the minimum bend radius can degrade signal performance. Verify riser pathway requirements with the authority having jurisdiction before routing CMR-rated cable.
