Wirepath SP-CAT6A-1000-WHT Cat 6A Riser Cable 1000 Ft

Product Description

The WIREPATH SP-CAT6A-1000-WHT is a Category 6A unshielded twisted-pair riser-rated cable supplied in a 1000-foot pull box. Cat 6A extends the 10-Gigabit Ethernet standard to full 100-meter channel lengths, doubling the bandwidth headroom of standard Cat 6 at 500 MHz. The riser (CMR) rating meets fire-propagation requirements for vertical runs between floors in commercial and residential buildings. Low-voltage installers and structured-cabling technicians use this cable for horizontal and backbone runs in data, VoIP, and IP security camera infrastructure.

This cable is suited for new construction and retrofit structured-cabling installations in offices, schools, multi-unit residential buildings, and light commercial facilities. It is appropriate for runs to workstation drops, wireless access points, IP cameras, VoIP handsets, and network switches wherever a riser pathway is involved. The white jacket aids identification in plenum ceilings and conduit bundles where color-coded cable management practices are in place.

Key Features

• Category 6A performance supports 10-Gigabit Ethernet at full 100-meter channel lengths
• 500 MHz bandwidth headroom for high-density network environments
• CMR riser rating meets code requirements for vertical inter-floor cable runs
• 1000-foot continuous length minimizes splices on long backbone or horizontal runs
• White jacket supports color-coded cable management and easy visual tracing
• Unshielded construction simplifies termination and reduces grounding complexity

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style structured-cabling solution compatible with standard Cat 6A RJ45 keystone jacks, patch panels, and connectors that terminate unshielded twisted-pair cable to TIA-568 specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage technician or structured-cabling professional familiar with TIA-568 and local building codes. Verify the riser (CMR) rating meets the authority having jurisdiction before pulling cable in vertical shafts or between floors. Avoid sharp bends below the minimum bend radius and keep Cat 6A cable separated from high-voltage electrical conductors to prevent interference. Terminate both ends with Cat 6A-rated jacks or plugs and test the completed channel with a certification tester to confirm 10-Gigabit performance.
