Belden Inc. CAF1100001 CAT6 Patch Cable 1 Foot Black

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. CAF1100001 is a CAT6 patch cable rated CMR (Communications Multipurpose Cable, Riser) and finished in black. Designed for structured cabling installations, this cable provides reliable Gigabit Ethernet connectivity between network equipment, patch panels, and wall ports. The 1-foot length makes it well suited for short runs inside network racks, cabinets, and server closets where cable management is a priority. Licensed network technicians, low-voltage cabling contractors, and IT infrastructure installers are the primary professionals working with this cable.

This patch cable is intended for indoor riser-rated environments where CMR-rated cabling is required by code. At 1 foot, it is commonly used for panel-to-switch connections, equipment-bay cross-connects, and tight-clearance rack installations in both commercial and light industrial network infrastructure projects.

Key Features

• CMR riser rating meets code requirements for vertical runs between floors in commercial buildings
• CAT6 performance supports Gigabit Ethernet and 10-Gigabit applications at shorter distances
• 1-foot length minimizes cable clutter in high-density rack environments
• Black jacket simplifies color-coded cable management schemes
• Sold individually, quantity of one per unit

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-fit patch cable for CAT6 and CAT6E structured cabling systems using standard RJ45 ports.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by low-voltage cabling contractors or licensed network technicians. Ensure patch panel ports and switch ports are free of debris before seating connectors. Follow TIA-568 bend-radius guidelines to avoid degrading cable performance. Do not exceed the rated pulling tension when routing cables through conduit or raceways.
