Belden Inc. C631204020 Cat6 Cmr Pigtail 20 in

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. C631204020 is a Cat6 CMR-rated pigtail patch cable finished in yellow. CMR (Communications Multipurpose Cable, Riser) rating qualifies this cable for installation in riser spaces between floors where fire spread through a building is a concern. At 20 inches in length, this pigtail is designed for short-run structured cabling terminations, cross-connects, and patch panel work. Network technicians and low-voltage installers use pigtails like this to terminate or extend runs at distribution frames, switches, and patch panels in commercial and residential data installations.

This cable is suited for Cat6 and Cat6-plus structured cabling systems in both residential and light commercial environments. Its 20-inch length makes it appropriate for high-density patch panel installations, server room cross-connects, and telecom closet terminations where cable management space is limited. The yellow jacket provides visual identification in multi-cable environments, which aids in circuit tracing and organization during installation and maintenance.

Key Features

• Cat6-plus performance rating supports Gigabit and higher-speed Ethernet applications
• CMR riser rating meets fire code requirements for installation in vertical shaft and riser pathways
• Yellow jacket aids visual identification and cable management in multi-drop installations
• 20-inch length suited for patch panel and cross-connect terminations in telecom closets
• Factory-terminated pigtail design reduces field termination time

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard pigtail for Cat6 and Cat6-plus structured cabling patch panel systems and data network installations.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage installers and network technicians typically install riser-rated patch cables in accordance with ANSI/TIA-568 structured cabling standards and local fire codes governing riser spaces. De-energize or power down connected network equipment before making or breaking cable connections at live patch panels or switches. Avoid sharp bends below the cable minimum bend radius to maintain signal integrity. CMR-rated cables must not be substituted in plenum-rated spaces where CMP-rated cable is required by code.
