Belden Inc. CA31309007 Cat6 Cmr Pigtail Patch Cable

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. CA31309007 is a Category 6 pigtail-style patch cable rated for CMR (Communications Multipurpose Cable, Riser) applications. Finished in white, this 7-inch cable is designed for structured cabling installations where short, flexible jumper connections are needed between patch panels, keystone jacks, or network equipment. Its riser-rated jacket meets fire propagation standards required for vertical runs between floors, making it suitable for commercial and residential data network builds. Network technicians and low-voltage installers use this cable in telecommunications rooms and equipment racks where space and cable management are critical.

This pigtail patch cable is intended for Cat6 and Cat6E structured cabling environments. Its short 7-inch length makes it well suited for high-density patch panel applications, server rack deployments, and equipment room cross-connects where longer cables would create unnecessary slack and clutter. The CMR rating qualifies it for in-wall and riser installations in commercial and residential buildings per applicable building and fire codes.

Key Features

• Category 6 performance rating supports 10GBase-T Ethernet applications
• CMR (Riser) jacket rating meets fire propagation requirements for vertical cable runs
• 7-inch length designed for high-density patch panel and rack cross-connect use
• White jacket finish aids in color-coded cable management schemes
• Pigtail-style termination for flexible structured cabling deployments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fit for Cat6 and Cat6E patch panel, keystone jack, and network switch port applications in structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage or network cabling technician familiar with TIA-568 structured cabling standards. Power down or disconnect active network equipment before making or changing patch cable connections to avoid data interruption or equipment damage. Avoid sharp bends that exceed the cable minimum bend radius, as this can degrade signal performance at Cat6 frequencies. CMR-rated cables must be installed in accordance with NEC Article 800 riser requirements when routed between building floors.
