Cat5e Riser CMR 1000ft Ethernet Cable White — Technical Overview
The 52Networks Cat5e Riser CMR 1000ft Ethernet Cable White (SKU: 52N-5CMR-2) is an indoor commercial-grade unshielded twisted pair (U/UTP) bulk networking cable engineered for vertical riser runs, in-wall drops, and clean architectural office connections. Constructed with 24 AWG 4-pair conductors, High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) insulation, and a flame-retardant CMR riser-rated white PVC jacket, it supports 350MHz bandwidth and 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet (1000BASE-T) up to 328ft (100m). Compliant with NEC Article 800 CMR, ANSI/TIA-568.2-D, and RoHS standards, it ships in a tangle-free 1000ft Easy Pull Box for fast deployment across commercial offices, schools, retail facilities, and residential networks.
Engineered for Vertical Riser Shafts, Architectural Drops & Clean Office Interiors
When installing structured network cabling vertically between floors, inside wall cavities, or through non-plenum utility and elevator shafts, standard patch cable violates building safety codes. Under the National Electrical Code (NEC Article 800), vertical runs require a CMR (Communications Multipurpose Cable, Riser) rating engineered to self-extinguish and prevent flames from traveling floor-to-floor in the event of a fire.
Our Cat5e Riser CMR 1000ft Ethernet Cable White satisfies indoor riser safety codes while providing a clean matte white outer jacket designed to blend invisibly into white office walls, drop ceilings, and surface-mounted raceways. Low-voltage contractors and IT administrators rely on white Cat5e riser cabling for professional office drops and visible trim work. Need other colors or higher-bandwidth cabling?

Core Engineering & Installation Advantages
🔥 CMR Riser Fire-Safety Jacket
Formulated with a flame-retardant white PVC compound rated to UL 1666 / NEC Article 800 CMR riser standards, preventing vertical flame propagation in wall cavities and multi-story riser shafts.
⚡ 350MHz Gigabit Headroom
Swept and tested up to 350MHz—more than triple the standard 100MHz Cat5e requirement—ensuring reliable 10/100/1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet transmission with minimal crosstalk.
🎯 Clean Architectural White Jacket
Blends seamlessly into white drywall, surface raceways, and acoustic ceiling tiles for a professional, unobtrusive finish.
📦 Tangle-Free 1000ft Easy Pull Box
Packaged in a reinforced job-site pull box with a wide payout tube and sequential 2-foot footage markings printed along the jacket for snag-free conduit and wall-stud pulls.
Key Features of Cat5e Riser CMR 1000ft Ethernet Cable White
- 24 AWG 4-Pair U/UTP Construction: Precision-twisted pairs minimize Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT) and electromagnetic interference (EMI) across indoor runs.
- 350MHz High-Speed Bandwidth: Supports 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet, and 1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet up to 328 feet (100 meters).
- CMR Riser Fire Rating: Code-compliant for indoor vertical runs between floors, inside walls, and through non-plenum raceways and cable trays.
- PoE Application Ready: Suitable for powering VoIP desk phones, wireless access points, and IP surveillance cameras when installed within applicable PoE guidelines.
- Universal Termination Compatibility: Terminates cleanly into standard Cat5e RJ45 Keystone Jacks, Cat5e Patch Panels, and RJ45 crimp connectors.
- Sequential Footage Markings: Marked every 2 feet along the outer jacket so technicians can measure exact run lengths and track remaining cable in the box.
- Clean White Aesthetic: Perfect for visible office drops and surface-mounted installations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
A: This Cat5e bulk cable is tested up to 350MHz and supports full 10/100/1000 Mbps (1 Gbps Gigabit Ethernet) at distances up to 328 feet (100 meters) when installed within standard ANSI/TIA channel guidelines.
A: CMR stands for Communications Multipurpose Cable, Riser. Under NEC Article 800, it is engineered for indoor vertical cable runs between floors, inside wall cavities, and through non-plenum riser shafts where fire-resistant jacket construction is required to stop flames from spreading floor-to-floor. (For active HVAC air-handling drop ceilings, use our CMP Plenum-rated line).
A: White riser cable is the preferred choice for visible office drops, surface-mounted raceways, and connections to white VoIP phones or wireless access points because the clean white jacket blends seamlessly into drywall and trim.
A: Yes. This 24 AWG 4-pair Cat5e UTP cable is widely used with Power over Ethernet (PoE) endpoints such as VoIP desk phones, wireless access points, and IP cameras when installed within applicable PoE distance and load guidelines.
A: Every box contains 1000 feet (305 meters) of white Cat5e CMR cable wound inside a heavy-duty, tangle-free Easy Pull Box with sequential footage markings printed every 2 feet along the jacket.
