Ortronics PW5ER70DB-00 Solid Cord Riser 70ft Black

Product Description

The ORTRONICS PW5ER70DB-00 is a solid cord riser-rated cable in a 70-foot length with a black jacket. Riser-rated cables are designed to run vertically between floors in commercial and residential buildings, meeting fire safety codes that restrict flame spread through building cavities. This cable is sold as a single unit and is intended for structured cabling installations where a pre-cut, fixed-length run is preferred over bulk spooled wire. Installation is typically performed by licensed low-voltage cabling technicians or network infrastructure professionals.

This cord is suited for vertical cable runs inside building risers, telecommunications rooms, and between floor distribution points. The fixed 70-foot length reduces field cutting and waste on standard floor-to-floor runs. It is appropriate for commercial office builds, multi-tenant residential buildings, and institutional facilities where riser-rated cabling is required by code. The black jacket color supports installations where cable identification or aesthetics require a dark finish in exposed cable pathways or ladder racks.

Key Features

• Riser-rated construction meets vertical flame-spread requirements for in-building cable runs
• 70-foot fixed length reduces on-site measuring and cutting
• Black jacket suitable for exposed pathway installations and cable management systems
• Solid conductor configuration for permanent, structured cabling applications
• Single-unit packaging for precise quantity ordering on small or punch-list jobs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style riser cable for structured cabling installations requiring a riser-rated solid cord in standard building telecommunications pathways.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage technician in accordance with applicable NEC Article 800 requirements for riser-rated communications cables. De-energize any adjacent active circuits and follow facility lockout procedures before routing cable through building cavities or conduit. Solid conductor cables are intended for fixed, permanent runs and should not be used in applications requiring repeated flexing or movement. Support the cable at intervals consistent with local code requirements to prevent stress on terminations.
