Belden Inc. CAF1200035 Cat6 Patch Cable Cmr Black 35ft

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. CAF1200035 is a Cat6 patch cable rated for CMR (Communications Multipurpose Cable, Riser) applications, built for structured network cabling in commercial and residential installations. Terminated to the T568A wiring standard, this cable is designed for reliable Gigabit and 10-Gigabit Ethernet connections in riser-rated environments. At 35 feet in length, it suits longer horizontal runs between network equipment, patch panels, and switches where standard short patch cables fall short. Network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors install this cable as part of structured cabling systems that comply with TIA-568 standards.

This riser-rated patch cable is intended for use in vertical runs between floors and in areas where plenum-rated cable is not required. It fits typical commercial office, industrial, and light institutional environments. The T568A termination standard is commonly specified in government and certain commercial installations. At 35 feet, it accommodates equipment room-to-rack or cross-connect runs that require more reach than standard 7-foot or 14-foot patch cables. It is sold as a single cable unit.

Key Features

• T568A termination standard for compatibility with TIA-568A-wired infrastructure
• CMR riser rating suitable for vertical runs in non-plenum spaces
• 10GXF designation indicating support for 10-Gigabit Ethernet performance
• Black jacket for easy identification and cable management
• 35-foot length for longer equipment room and cross-connect runs
• Sold as individual unit (EA)

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style patch cable for Cat6 and Cat6E structured cabling systems terminated to the T568A standard in riser-rated environments.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage cabling contractor or qualified network technician in accordance with TIA-568 and applicable local codes. Avoid sharp bends or kinking during routing, as exceeding the minimum bend radius can degrade cable performance. Do not route alongside high-voltage conductors without proper separation as required by NEC Article 800. Verify riser versus plenum requirements for the specific installation area before selecting this CMR-rated cable.
