Belden Inc. CA21308025 Cat6 Pigtail Cmr Gray 25 Ft

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. CA21308025 is a Cat6 pigtail-style patch cable designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and residential environments. Built to CMR (Communications Multipurpose Cable, Riser) rating standards, this cable is suitable for vertical runs between floors where fire-code-compliant cabling is required. The gray jacket provides easy visual identification in dense cable management environments. Sold as a single unit, this pigtail format is commonly used for terminating patch panels, connecting network equipment, or extending structured cabling runs in low-voltage data systems.

This cable is intended for Cat6 and Cat6E network infrastructure applications. Typical installation scenarios include data closets, server rooms, office structured cabling, and riser pathways in multi-story buildings. The CMR rating makes it appropriate for use in environmental air spaces and riser applications where non-plenum-rated cable is permitted. Low-voltage network technicians and structured cabling installers are the primary trades working with this product.

Key Features

• CMR (Riser) rating for vertical in-wall and riser pathway installations
• Cat6 performance category supporting Gigabit Ethernet and beyond
• Gray jacket for straightforward cable identification and organization
• Pigtail format suitable for patch panel terminations and equipment connections
• Single-unit quantity for flexible deployment in smaller runs or targeted replacements

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-fit option for Cat6 and Cat6E structured cabling systems requiring CMR-rated pigtail patch cables.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage technician familiar with TIA-568 structured cabling standards. Ensure all pathways comply with local fire codes and NEC Article 800 requirements for riser-rated communications cable before routing. Do not exceed the cable's minimum bend radius during routing, and avoid running alongside high-voltage conductors without proper separation. Power down connected network equipment before terminating or replacing patch cables to avoid data disruption or equipment damage.
