Description
Category 6 CMR Solid Patch Cable for Riser Installations
The Category 6 CMR Solid Patch Cable is engineered for reliable, high-speed network connectivity in riser and in-wall applications. Designed with 24AWG solid copper conductors and a flame-resistant CMR jacket, it ensures both performance and safety in vertical runs between floors.
Capable of supporting data transmission up to 1Gbps and bandwidths of 250MHz, this cable is ideal for structured cabling systems in commercial or residential environments. Its solid construction minimizes signal loss, making it perfect for permanent installations that demand durability and code compliance.
Key Features
- Category 6 rated for 1Gbps data speeds and 250MHz bandwidth
- 24AWG solid copper conductors for stable, long-distance performance
- CMR PVC jacket compliant with UL 1666 flame test standards
- U/UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) for balanced noise rejection
- Ideal for vertical riser applications in multi-story buildings
- Compatible with T568A/B wiring configurations
- Supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) and VoIP devices
What is a CMR rated patch cable?
CMR, or Communications Riser, cables are designed to prevent the spread of flames between building floors, making them suitable for riser and in-wall installations that comply with building codes.
Is solid copper better than stranded for network cabling?
Yes, solid copper provides better electrical performance and lower signal loss, making it ideal for longer, permanent installations, especially within walls or conduits.
Can this Cat6 cable support Power over Ethernet (PoE)?
Yes, the Category 6 CMR solid cable supports IEEE PoE standards, making it capable of powering devices like IP cameras and wireless access points.
Where should I use CMR-rated cable instead of CMP?
Use CMR-rated cable in vertical riser shafts between floors. For air-handling spaces like plenum ceilings, use CMP-rated cables that meet stricter flame and smoke standards.
