Wirepath NST-CAT6-1000-WHT Cat6 Riser Cable 1000ft

Product Description

The WIREPATH NST-CAT6-1000-WHT is a Category 6 riser-rated (CMR) bulk cable supplied in a 1000-foot pull box. Designed for structured wiring installations in commercial and residential buildings, it supports Gigabit Ethernet and high-speed data runs between floors and through vertical riser pathways. The riser rating classifies it for use in non-plenum vertical runs where flame spread must be controlled. Low-voltage cabling technicians and electricians pull this cable through conduit or open pathways to terminate at keystone jacks, patch panels, or modular outlets.

This cable is suited for horizontal and vertical data distribution in office buildings, schools, multi-family residential, and light commercial environments. It is typically installed as backbone or horizontal cabling in structured cabling systems designed to TIA-568 standards. The white jacket aids identification in mixed-cable environments and is commonly specified when aesthetic visibility at outlet terminations matters.

Key Features

• Category 6 performance supports Gigabit Ethernet and up to 250 MHz bandwidth
• CMR riser rating for vertical runs between building floors
• 1000-foot pull box for continuous runs with minimal splicing
• White jacket for easy identification in structured cabling installations
• Sold as a single box (1 unit per package)

Compatibility

Designed as a standard CMR-rated Cat6 bulk cable compatible with TIA-568-compliant termination hardware including Cat6 keystone jacks, patch panels, and modular plugs.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage technician or qualified electrician in accordance with NEC Article 800 requirements for communications wiring. De-energize any adjacent systems before working in enclosed pathways or conduit runs. Avoid sharp bends below the minimum bend radius and do not exceed the cable pull tension rating during installation. Terminate all conductors using a Cat6-rated punch-down tool or crimp tool to maintain channel performance.
