C2G CG15288 Cat6 Plenum Patch Cord – 75 ft

Overview

The C2G CG15288 is a 75-foot, non-booted Cat6 patch cord designed for installations within plenum spaces. Its CMP (Communications Multipurpose Plenum) rating ensures compliance with fire safety codes for use in air handling spaces, making it suitable for commercial network deployments where cable must run through or above occupied areas. This cord provides reliable Ethernet connectivity for devices like IP cameras, access control panels, and network switches.

Compatibility

This Cat6 patch cord is compatible with all standard networking equipment requiring an RJ45 connection, including but not limited to: IP cameras from brands like Axis, Hanwha, Hikvision, and Dahua; network switches from Cisco, Ubiquiti, and Netgear; and network video recorders (NVRs) and digital video recorders (DVRs) from various manufacturers. It supports data transfer rates up to 10 Gbps over distances up to 55 meters (180 feet), ensuring sufficient bandwidth for high-definition video streams and data transmission.

Installation Notes

The non-booted design offers a lower profile at the connector, which can be advantageous in densely populated network racks or wall plates. However, it lacks strain relief at the connector point, so care must be taken during installation and cable management to avoid excessive pulling or bending on the RJ45 connector. The plenum rating (CMP) is critical for compliance in environments where the cable is exposed to air circulation, such as above drop ceilings or under raised floors. Ensure all network cabling in plenum spaces meets local fire codes and building regulations.
