Genesis Cable 51931106 Cat6a Riser Cmr Cable 1000 Ft Blue

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 51931106 is a Cat6a riser-rated network cable designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and residential buildings. Constructed with 23 AWG conductors in a 4-pair configuration, it meets CMR (Communications Multipurpose Cable, Riser) and FT4 flame spread ratings, making it suitable for vertical runs between floors without conduit. The cable ships in a 1000-foot pull box and is finished in blue for easy identification. Licensed low-voltage technicians and structured cabling installers are the primary trades working with this product.

This cable is used in horizontal and vertical backbone runs for high-speed data networks supporting 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications. The Cat6a specification supports frequencies up to 500 MHz and is appropriate for data centers, office buildings, schools, and multi-unit residential projects. The blue jacket aids in color-coded patch field organization. The pull box format is standard for in-wall and plenum-adjacent riser installations where a continuous, clean feed is required.

Key Features

• Cat6a performance supports 10GBase-T Ethernet up to the rated channel length
• 23 AWG solid copper conductors in a 4-pair arrangement
• CMR riser rating permits vertical floor-to-floor runs without conduit per NEC Article 800
• FT4 flame spread rating satisfies Canadian installation code requirements
• 1000-foot pull box minimizes handling and reduces waste during long runs
• Blue jacket supports color-coded cabling infrastructure standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style riser cable for use with standard Cat6a keystone jacks, patch panels, and RJ-45 termination tooling compatible with 23 AWG solid conductors.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage or structured cabling technician in accordance with NEC Article 800 and local building codes. CMR-rated cable is approved for riser runs but must not be substituted for CMP-rated plenum cable in air-handling spaces. Maintain minimum bend radius during pull and avoid pinching or kinking the jacket, as deformation can degrade signal performance at 10G speeds. Terminate both ends with Cat6a-rated jacks or patch panel ports rated for 500 MHz to maintain channel compliance.
