Belden Inc. CA31308050 Cat6 Cmr Pigtail Cable Gray 50 Ft

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. CA31308050 is a Category 6 pigtail-style patch cable rated for CMR (Communications Multipurpose Cable, Riser) environments. Designed for structured cabling installations, this cable provides reliable 10G-capable data transmission in commercial and residential riser applications. At 50 feet in length, it suits runs between network equipment rooms, patch panels, and horizontal distribution points. Licensed network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors are the primary installers. The CMR rating makes it suitable for use in vertical shaft and riser pathways where fire code compliance is required.

This cable is used in commercial and residential network infrastructure where riser-rated cabling is required by code. Typical applications include connecting patch panels to network switches, running structured cabling between floors, and supporting 10 Gigabit Ethernet backbone segments. The gray jacket aids in color-coded cable management schemes commonly used in data centers and telecommunications rooms.

Key Features

• CMR (Riser) rating suitable for vertical shaft and riser pathway installations
• Supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance at the Category 6 specification
• 50-foot length accommodates medium-distance runs between network equipment
• Gray jacket supports color-coded cable management in structured cabling systems
• Pigtail-style configuration for direct termination or panel integration

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-fit cable for Cat6 and Cat6E patch cable applications in riser-rated structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage cabling technician or qualified network infrastructure contractor. Follow local building and fire codes, including applicable ANSI/TIA-568 structured cabling standards, when routing through riser pathways. Ensure all cable pathways and penetrations are properly firestopped per code requirements before completing the installation. Do not exceed the minimum bend radius or apply tension that could degrade cable performance.
