Belden Inc. CA21109070 CAT6 Patch Cord Cmr White

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. CA21109070 is a CAT6 patch cord rated for CMR (Communications Multipurpose Cable, Riser) environments, designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and light industrial settings. This 70-inch white patch cord supports high-speed data transmission over CAT6 infrastructure and is suitable for connecting network equipment, patch panels, and wall jacks. Licensed electricians and low-voltage cabling technicians are the primary installers. The CMR rating makes it appropriate for use in riser pathways between floors where plenum-rated cable is not required by code.

This patch cord is used in horizontal and vertical cable runs within building communications infrastructure. Typical applications include office network drops, server room patch panel terminations, and structured cabling systems built to ANSI/TIA-568 standards. The white jacket finish aids in cable identification and management in high-density installations. It is sold as a single unit.

Key Features

• CMR (Riser) rating suitable for vertical cable runs where plenum rating is not required
• CAT6 performance category supporting Gigabit Ethernet and 10GBASE-T applications at appropriate channel lengths
• 70-inch length provides flexibility for mid-distance patch panel and equipment connections
• White jacket finish supports color-coded cable management schemes
• Factory-terminated for consistent insertion loss and return loss performance

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use patch cord for CAT6 and CAT6-compatible structured cabling systems using 8P8C (RJ45) terminations.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed low-voltage technicians or electricians in accordance with ANSI/TIA-568 structured cabling standards and applicable local codes. Avoid sharp bends exceeding the minimum bend radius of the cable, and do not cinch cable ties so tightly that they deform the jacket. Power down or log off connected network equipment before swapping patch cords in live environments where service interruption is a concern. Riser-rated cables must not be substituted for plenum-rated cables in air-handling spaces without verifying local code compliance.
