Belden Inc. C6T1107004 Cat6 Plus Cmr Patch Cord Purple

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. C6T1107004 is a Category 6 Plus (Cat6+) CMR-rated patch cord finished in purple. CMR (Communications Multipurpose Cable, Riser) rating means this cable meets fire-resistance requirements for use in building risers and most horizontal runs where a riser-rated jacket is specified. At 4 feet in length, it is well suited for short equipment-to-equipment connections in structured cabling installations. Electricians and low-voltage cabling technicians install this type of patch cord when terminating network drops, connecting switches to patch panels, or cross-connecting distribution frames in commercial and residential data systems.

This patch cord is intended for structured cabling environments including telecommunications rooms, server closets, and data closets. Its purple jacket aids in visual color-coding schemes that help technicians quickly identify cable function or VLAN segmentation at a glance. The Cat6+ designation supports Gigabit Ethernet and higher-bandwidth applications, making it appropriate for modern network infrastructure where performance margins above the base Cat6 standard are desired.

Key Features

• Cat6 Plus (Cat6+) performance rating supports Gigabit Ethernet and demanding data applications
• CMR (Riser) jacket rating meets fire-resistance code requirements for riser and horizontal cable pathways
• Purple jacket enables color-coded patch field organization
• 4-foot length suitable for short hop connections between adjacent equipment
• Sold individually (1 cord per unit)

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Cat6 Plus CMR patch cord compatible with RJ45-equipped switches, routers, patch panels, and network interface devices in structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed electricians or registered low-voltage cabling technicians in accordance with ANSI/TIA-568 structured cabling standards and applicable local codes. Power down or place network ports in a safe state before connecting or disconnecting patch cords in live production environments to avoid unintended network disruption. Avoid sharp bends below the cable minimum bend radius and do not cinch cable ties so tightly that the jacket deforms, as either condition can degrade Cat6 signal performance. Verify CMR rating is acceptable for the specific pathway before installation, as some jurisdictions or plenum spaces require a higher CMP rating.
