Belden Inc. C6F1106005 Cat6 Patch Cord Cmr Blue 5ft

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. C6F1106005 is a Category 6 patch cord rated for CMR (Communications Multipurpose Cable, Riser) environments, finished in blue with a 5-foot length. Patch cords in this class carry high-speed data signals between network equipment — switches, patch panels, routers, and workstations — in commercial and residential structured wiring installations. The CMR rating qualifies this cable for vertical runs between floors inside riser shafts and in-wall pathways where plenum-rated cable is not required. Network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors are the primary installers.

This patch cord is suited for horizontal distribution and equipment-room connections in Cat6 structured cabling systems. The 5-foot length fits short rack-to-rack or panel-to-switch runs cleanly without excess slack. Blue jacket color is commonly used for data port identification in color-coded patching schemes. The CMR rating makes it appropriate for in-wall and riser routing in commercial office, school, and light-industrial environments where local codes permit riser-rated cable.

Key Features

• Category 6 performance supports Gigabit Ethernet and 10GBase-T applications at shorter distances
• CMR (Riser) jacket rating suitable for vertical in-building cable runs
• 5-foot length designed for short patch panel and equipment connections
• Blue jacket for easy port identification in color-coded wiring schemes
• Sold individually as a single unit

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Cat6 patch cord compatible with RJ45 keystone jacks, patch panels, and network equipment ports in Cat5e, Cat6, and Cat6A structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage cabling technicians and network installers typically handle Cat6 patch cord deployments. Verify the CMR rating meets local building and fire code requirements for the intended routing path before installation — plenum-rated cable is required in air-handling spaces. De-energize connected equipment before swapping active patch connections where network interruption is a concern. Do not exceed the minimum bend radius of the cable to avoid signal degradation.
