Belden Inc. CA22103015 Fiber Patch Cable 15ft B10GX Cmp

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. CA22103015 is a B10GX-rated fiber optic patch cable designed for high-speed structured cabling applications. Rated CMP (plenum) for safe installation in air-handling spaces, this 15-foot cable meets the fire and smoke requirements mandated by building codes for plenum-rated pathways. It is used to terminate fiber runs between network equipment, patch panels, and fiber distribution units. Licensed low-voltage technicians and structured cabling installers handle this type of component during both new construction and retrofit network infrastructure projects.

This patch cable is suited for commercial and enterprise environments where plenum-rated cabling is required by fire code. Typical installations include data centers, telecommunications rooms, and open-ceiling office environments. The orange jacket color is consistent with standard color-coding conventions for multimode fiber, making identification in high-density patch panels straightforward. It ships as a single cable unit and is used wherever a pre-terminated, ready-to-install fiber jumper is needed.

Key Features

• B10GX fiber designation supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet transmission standards
• CMP plenum rating meets NEC Article 770 requirements for air-handling spaces
• 15-foot length provides reach for typical equipment-to-patch-panel runs
• Orange jacket follows industry color-coding for multimode fiber identification
• Factory-terminated ends eliminate field splicing and reduce installation time

Compatibility

Designed as a pre-terminated, OEM-style fiber patch cable suitable for use with multimode fiber patch panels, switches, and fiber distribution equipment in structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage technician or registered communications distribution designer familiar with TIA-568 and NEC Article 770 requirements. Power down active ports before connecting or disconnecting fiber patch cables to protect optical transceivers. Avoid sharp bends below the cable minimum bend radius and do not over-tension when routing through cable managers. Inspect and clean fiber end-faces before mating connectors to maintain signal integrity.
