    Q:The specification sheet refers to two different Riser models, one rated for 250 MHz and one for 550 MHz. I can't find either stock # from the spec sheet on this page or on the product itself in Home Depot. Does anyone know which model (250 or 500 MHz) this is?

    A:  The cable sleeve says it's Cat 6, which is spec'd at 250 MHz. If you're looking for 500 MHz, that's Cat 6a.

                A:  Yes, our CAT cable conductor are made of 23 AWG Solid bare copper. Please refer to the product manual for more information. The above advice is based upon the current edition of the National Electric Code (NEC). Free access to the latest version of the NEC is available online at www.nfpa.org/freeaccess. The NEC and local building codes regulate the types of wire and cable that can be used in specific electrical applications, as well as the manner of installation. Check your local building codes before you start any wiring and cable electrical project and be sure to obtain required permits. When your work is complete, always have it inspected for compliance with local codes to ensure that it has been safely installed.
