Belden Inc. C601408010 CAT6 Plus Cmr Crossover Cable

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. C601408010 is a CAT6 Plus crossover patch cable rated for CMR (riser) installations. It provides a direct Ethernet crossover connection between two devices without a switch or router in between, making it a practical solution for direct device-to-device communication. At 10 feet in length, this cable suits short-run applications in equipment rooms, server closets, and data panels. The CMR riser rating meets building code requirements for installation in vertical runs between floors. Low-voltage data and network installers are the primary trades who work with this cable.

This crossover cable is designed for horizontal and riser pathways in commercial and residential structured wiring installations. It is used when connecting two like devices directly, such as a workstation to another workstation or a switch to a switch port. The gray jacket color is commonly used for easy identification within patch panels and cable management systems. The CAT6 Plus designation supports Gigabit Ethernet performance and is suited for data infrastructure builds, office networks, and AV integration environments.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage network technicians and structured cabling installers handle installation of this cable. Power down or disconnect the active devices before seating or removing patch cable connections in live equipment racks. Installation in riser pathways should comply with applicable local building codes and NEC riser-rated cable requirements. Avoid sharp bends or kinks that exceed the cable minimum bend radius, as this can degrade signal performance.
