Belden Inc. CAF2109007 Cat6 Patch Cable White 7 Feet

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. CAF2109007 is a Cat6 patch cable rated for CMP (plenum) environments, finished in white and measuring 7 feet in length. Plenum-rated cables meet stricter fire and smoke standards required for air-handling spaces above drop ceilings and below raised floors. This cable is sold as an individual unit and is suited for structured cabling installations in commercial and light-industrial settings. Network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors install this type of patch cord to make horizontal or cross-connect runs between patch panels, switches, and end devices.

This patch cable is designed for use in Cat6 and Cat6E horizontal cabling systems. The plenum (CMP) jacket rating makes it appropriate for installation inside plenum air-handling spaces where local codes and the NEC require low-smoke, flame-retardant cable jackets. The white jacket finish is commonly used to support color-coded cable management schemes in structured cabling environments. It connects standard RJ45 ports on network switches, patch panels, wall jacks, and networked equipment.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed low-voltage cabling technicians or network contractors. De-energize connected switching equipment before making or breaking connections in live racks. Follow NEC Article 800 and local fire codes governing plenum-rated cabling in air-handling spaces. Avoid sharp bends below the cable minimum bend radius to maintain signal integrity.
