Belden Inc. C6F1100003 Cat6 Cmr Patch Cord 3ft

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. C6F1100003 is a Category 6 CMR-rated patch cord finished in black, designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and light industrial environments. CMR (Communications Multipurpose Cable, Riser) rating makes this cord suitable for vertical runs between floors where riser-rated cabling is required by code. At 3 feet in length, it is sized for short equipment-to-switch or patch-panel-to-port connections in telecom rooms, server racks, and data distribution frames. Licensed low-voltage cabling technicians and network infrastructure installers are the primary trade working with this product.

This patch cord is appropriate for horizontal and riser pathway installations in commercial office buildings, data centers, and multi-floor facilities where riser-rated Category 6 performance is required. Its compact 3-foot length suits tight rack environments and high-density patch panel fields where cable management and bend radius control are a priority. It ships as a single unit and is ready for immediate termination into standard RJ45 keystone or modular patch panel ports.

Key Features

• Category 6 performance supports Gigabit Ethernet and high-speed data transmission
• CMR riser rating meets NEC Article 800 requirements for vertical cable runs between floors
• 3-foot length suited for short patch field and rack-level connections
• Black jacket finish supports color-coded cable management schemes
• Single-unit packaging allows precise quantity ordering for patch field work

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Cat6 CMR patch cord compatible with RJ45-terminated Cat6 and Cat6E patch panels, wall plates, and network switches in riser-rated structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage cabling technician familiar with TIA-568 structured cabling standards and NEC Article 800 requirements for communications wiring. Do not exceed the minimum bend radius of the cable during routing, as kinking can degrade signal performance. Ensure patch panel ports and switch ports are free of debris before seating connectors. Avoid bundling patch cords too tightly, as compression can affect Cat6 pair geometry and transmission performance.
