Superior Essex PW52-H46-28 Cat5e Riser Cable 1000 Ft

Product Description

The SUPERIOR ESSEX PW52-H46-28 is a Category 5e riser-rated (CMR) Ethernet cable designed for structured wiring installations in commercial and residential buildings. Constructed as a 4-pair, 22 AWG unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable, it supports data transmission applications requiring reliable signal performance across horizontal and vertical runs. The riser rating permits installation in building risers and vertical shaft pathways where plenum-rated cable is not required. This cable ships in a 1000-foot pull box for efficient field deployment.

This cable is suited for in-wall and in-conduit structured cabling runs in office buildings, multi-tenant residential properties, schools, and light commercial facilities. Network cabling contractors and low-voltage electricians install this cable for data drops, voice-over-IP infrastructure, and LAN backbone segments between floors. The 1000-foot pull box reduces handling time during longer runs.

Key Features

• Category 5e performance supporting standard 100BASE-TX and Gigabit Ethernet applications
• CMR (riser) jacket rating for vertical pathway and in-wall installations where plenum cable is not required
• 4-pair, 22 AWG construction for structured cabling runs
• 1000-foot pull box packaging reduces waste and speeds field installation
• Non-plenum jacket suitable for general-purpose building wiring outside air-handling spaces

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-supply Cat5e riser cable compatible with RJ-45 keystone jacks, patch panels, and modular connectors meeting TIA-568 Category 5e termination standards.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage electricians and network cabling contractors should install this cable in accordance with ANSI/TIA-568 structured cabling standards and applicable local building codes. De-energize any adjacent circuits before pulling cable through shared conduit or raceways. CMR-rated cable must not be installed in air-handling plenums or ducts — use CMP-rated cable in those spaces. Avoid sharp bends and maintain minimum bend radius during pulling to preserve pair geometry and signal integrity.
