StarTech WIRC5ECMR 1000ft Bulk Cat5e CMR Riser Cable
Overview :
The StarTech WIRC5ECMR is a 1000-foot bulk roll of Category 5e (Cat5e) cabling, precision-engineered for professional network deployments in commercial buildings and data centers. This solid-core UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) cable is the primary choice for infrastructure engineers requiring stable, permanent horizontal and vertical cable runs. The blue PVC jacket is industry-standard for data network identification, allowing for clear visual organization within dense patch panels and riser shafts.
Constructed with 24 AWG pure bare copper conductors, this cable far exceeds the performance of copper-clad aluminum (CCA) alternatives by offering superior conductivity and significantly lower heat generation. It is fully rated for 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet and supports frequencies up to 350 MHz, providing extra headroom to minimize Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT). The solid-wire design ensures the highest integrity for punch-down terminations on wall jacks and patch blocks.
Safety compliance is a core feature, as the WIRC5ECMR carries a CMR (Riser) fire rating. This certification permits safe installation in vertical shafts and in-wall runs between floors in non-plenum environments. To streamline deployment, the cable is housed in a Reelex pull-box for kink-free dispensing and features sequential foot markers on the jacket, allowing technicians to track remaining cable and manage project inventory accurately.
