The Genesis 50921106 is a Category 6 Plus riser network cable from Southwire’s Genesis® line. It has 23 AWG, 4-pair solid bare copper conductors in an unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) configuration. The cable carries a UL 444 CMR riser listing for general-purpose communications use. Furthermore, the cable ships in a 1000-foot pull box with a blue PVC riser jacket.
Genesis 50921106 Specifications
The construction features 23 AWG solid bare copper conductors with polyolefin insulation. In addition, a pair-separator spline reduces alien crosstalk between pairs. Also, the cable is sweep-tested to ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 Category 6 performance. Furthermore, the gauge is 23 AWG, which is heavier than the 24 AWG used in Cat 5e for better insertion loss.
Listings and Standards
This Cat 6 Plus riser network cable carries the manufacturer-published listings below:
- UL 444 — Communications Cables, Type CMR
- UL 1666 — Standard Test for Flame Propagation in Risers
- ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 — Category 6 channel performance
- CSA C22.2 No. 2556 — FT4 flame test
- RoHS compliant
Installation Notes for Genesis 50921106
First, this is a Category 6 NETWORK cable, NOT a fire alarm cable. As a result, do NOT use it on UL 1424 power-limited fire alarm circuits. Then, CMR allows install in risers and general non-plenum spaces. However, this cable is NOT plenum-rated. Therefore, do not install it in air-handling spaces per NEC 300.22(C). Specifying CMR on a fire alarm circuit violates NEC Article 760.
