Belden Inc. C601108013 CAT6 Plus Patch Cord Cmr Gray

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. C601108013 is a CAT6 Plus patch cord rated for CMR (Communications Multipurpose Cable, Riser) installations. Designed for structured cabling applications, this patch cord provides reliable gigabit and fast Ethernet connectivity in commercial and residential network environments. The CMR rating makes it suitable for vertical runs between floors in riser pathways where fire-spread resistance is required. At 13 inches in length, it is commonly used for short equipment bay connections, patch panel terminations, and switch-to-device links. Network technicians and low-voltage installers rely on this cable for clean, organized rack and panel wiring.

This patch cord fits standard CAT6 and CAT6-plus structured cabling deployments in commercial office buildings, data centers, and institutional facilities. It is well suited for patch panel-to-switch connections in telecommunications rooms and equipment closets. The 13-inch length keeps cable management tight in high-density rack environments where slack control is critical.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard addition for CAT6 and CAT6 Plus structured cabling patch panel and switch installations in riser-rated network environments.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by low-voltage technicians or licensed network cabling contractors. Power down or disconnect active equipment ports before seating or removing patch cords where hot-swapping is not supported by the connected hardware. Follow ANSI/TIA-568 standards for structured cabling installation and bend-radius guidelines to maintain signal integrity. Avoid sharp bends or tight bundling that could degrade cable performance.
