Genesis Cable 51931101 Cat6a Riser Cable 23 Awg 4-pair Cmr

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 51931101 is a Cat6a riser-rated network cable engineered for structured cabling installations in commercial and residential buildings. Constructed with 23 AWG conductors in a 4-pair configuration, this cable meets CMR (Communications Multipurpose Cable, Riser) and FT4 flame spread ratings, making it suitable for vertical runs between floors through riser shafts. Sold in a 1000-foot box, the white jacket provides straightforward identification in cable trays and conduit runs. Network installers and low-voltage contractors rely on this cable for high-speed data infrastructure that supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications.

This cable is intended for in-building horizontal and riser backbone runs in office buildings, schools, healthcare facilities, and multi-unit residential structures. It is suited for installation in conduit, cable trays, and open plenum-free riser pathways. The CMR rating qualifies it for vertical shaft runs where a plenum-rated cable is not required by code. It supports structured cabling systems built to TIA-568 standards for Cat6a performance.

Key Features

• Cat6a performance supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet and bandwidth up to 500 MHz
• 23 AWG solid copper conductors in a 4-pair configuration
• CMR riser flame rating meets NEC Article 800 requirements for riser applications
• FT4 flame spread rating satisfies Canadian electrical code requirements
• White jacket for easy identification in structured cabling environments
• 1000-foot pull box packaging for clean, controlled cable deployment

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Cat6a riser cable for use with 23 AWG-compatible keystone jacks, patch panels, and modular connectors in TIA-568-compliant structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage or network cabling contractor in accordance with NEC Article 800 and applicable local codes. Observe minimum bend radius requirements for Cat6a cable to maintain transmission performance and avoid pair damage. Do not staple or overtighten cable ties, as excessive compression on the jacket can degrade pair geometry and reduce channel performance. Verify riser versus plenum requirements with the authority having jurisdiction before selecting cable type for a given pathway.
