Belden Inc. 1213F 010A1000 Cat5e Plus Ethernet Cable 1000 Ft

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. 1213F 010A1000 is a Cat5e+ enhanced twisted-pair data cable designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and residential buildings. This 1000-foot reel features four individually twisted pairs with a ribbed jacket construction that aids in pair identification and cable management during pulls. Rated CMR (Communications Multipurpose Cable, Riser), it meets vertical-shaft fire-propagation requirements under NEC Article 800. The cable is finished in black and ships as a single 1000-foot unit, making it suitable for large horizontal or riser runs in network infrastructure projects.

This cable is used in low-voltage data and voice network installations where riser-rated cabling is required between floors or within vertical pathways. It is a standard choice for pulling runs to patch panels, switches, IP cameras, VoIP phones, and access control hardware. Low-voltage technicians and structured cabling contractors are the primary installers. The ribbed outer jacket helps differentiate this cable from flat or smooth-jacket runs in high-density conduit or cable tray environments.

Key Features

• Cat5e+ performance rating supports data transmission up to 100 MHz for Gigabit Ethernet applications
• CMR riser rating meets NEC Article 800 requirements for vertical shaft and riser installations
• Ribbed black jacket aids in pair separation and cable identification during installation
• 4-pair construction follows standard T568A and T568B termination practices
• 1000-foot pull reel reduces the need for mid-run splices on long horizontal or riser runs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style structured cabling solution compatible with standard Cat5e keystone jacks, patch panels, and modular plugs that terminate to T568A or T568B wiring standards in riser-rated network installations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage or structured cabling technician in accordance with NEC Article 800 and applicable local codes. De-energize any adjacent electrical equipment and follow building fire-stop requirements when passing cable through floor penetrations or fire-rated assemblies. Avoid bending the cable below its minimum bend radius and do not exceed the rated pulling tension during conduit pulls. Terminate with Cat5e-rated jacks, plugs, or patch panel ports using a 110-style punch-down tool or compatible crimp tool.
