Superior Essex 77-240-5A CAT6 Riser Cable Green 1000ft

Product Description

The SUPERIOR ESSEX 77-240-5A is a CAT6 riser-rated (CMR) network cable packaged in a 1000-foot pull box. Designed for vertical backbone runs between floors in commercial and residential buildings, this cable meets CMR flame-spread requirements for installation inside building risers and vertical shafts. The green jacket provides quick visual identification on crowded cable runs. Structured cabling installers and low-voltage technicians are the primary trades handling this product.

This cable is suited for in-building horizontal and vertical data distribution in office, hospitality, education, and multi-family residential installations. The CMR rating qualifies it for riser pathways where CMP plenum is not required. It supports standard structured wiring layouts terminating at patch panels, keystone jacks, and RJ45 field-termination points.

Key Features

• CAT6 performance supporting Gigabit Ethernet and high-speed data applications
• CMR (riser) flame rating approved for vertical shaft and inter-floor runs
• Green jacket for easy visual identification and cable management
• 1000-foot pull box for efficient installation without mid-run splices
• Sold as a single unit (1 box)

Compatibility

Designed as a standard CMR-rated CAT6 cable compatible with CAT6 patch panels, keystone jacks, and RJ45 termination hardware following TIA-568 wiring standards.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage technician or structured cabling installer familiar with NEC Article 800 communications wiring requirements. De-energize nearby electrical circuits and secure pull lines before routing through riser sleeves or conduit. Maintain minimum bend radius throughout the pull to avoid degrading cable pair geometry. CMR-rated cable must not be substituted into plenum air-handling spaces where CMP-rated cable is required by code.
