Middle Atlantic NM TEE 2700 Ivory - 2715

Middle Atlantic 2715 2700 Series Non-Metallic Tee Fitting

The Middle Atlantic 2715 is a PVC tee fitting designed specifically for the 2700 Series non-metallic raceway system, giving installers a clean, code-friendly way to branch cable runs at junctions without cutting into finished walls or improvising with unmatched hardware. If you're running structured cabling, low-voltage security wiring, or A/V cable through surface-mount raceway in commercial or institutional spaces, the 2715 keeps those branch points tidy and system-consistent.

Overview

Surface raceway installations almost always include branch points — where a main run splits to feed a camera drop, a reader, or an endpoint device. Generic fittings from a hardware store rarely match the raceway profile exactly, which leads to gaps, misaligned channels, and a finished look that fails inspection or client walkthrough. The 2715 is factory-matched to the Middle Atlantic 2700 Series profile, so it seats flush and maintains the raceway's internal clearance through the junction. The ivory colorway integrates with standard commercial trim in offices, corridors, and light-industrial spaces where white or off-white wall finishes are the norm.

Key Features

• 2700 Series Profile Match: The 2715 is dimensionally spec'd for the 2700 Series cable duct family — not a universal approximation. That means the tee seats without gaps or stress-fit at the junction, which matters both aesthetically and structurally in a surface-mount run.
• PVC Construction: Polyvinyl chloride is the standard material choice for non-metallic surface raceway because it's lightweight, impact-resistant for typical wall environments, and won't corrode or oxidize in HVAC-conditioned interiors. It also allows clean scoring and snapping for minor field adjustments.
• 3.2 cm Maximum Cable Diameter: The raceway channel accommodates cables up to 3.2 cm in diameter — sufficient for bundled low-voltage runs (Cat6, RG59, 18/2 power, or combinations thereof) typical in IP camera or access control deployments. Verify your bundle diameter before ordering if you're running unusually thick conduit or armored cable.
• TAA Compliant: The 2715 carries TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliance, which means it qualifies for use on U.S. federal government contracts and GSA schedule projects where domestic/allied-nation sourcing is required. If your project is a federal facility, VA site, courthouse, or DoD-adjacent installation, this compliance status removes a common procurement friction point.
• Ivory Colorway: The ivory finish matches standard commercial wall and ceiling trim in most office, healthcare, and institutional environments. This reduces the need for field painting and keeps the installation looking intentional rather than afterthought.
• Single-Unit Pack: Sold individually (1 pc per pack), which gives integrators precise quantity control on projects where branch points are pre-counted — no excess inventory from mandatory multi-packs, no short-shipping a job.
• Universal Purpose: Rated for general-purpose cable management, not limited to a single cable type or protocol — compatible with structured data, low-voltage security, A/V, and similar wiring categories that fall within the physical diameter and bend-radius parameters of the 2700 Series system.

Integration and Compatibility

The 2715 is part of the broader Middle Atlantic 2700 Series non-metallic raceway ecosystem. For a complete surface-mount run, pair the tee fitting with 2700 Series base and cover lengths, inside and outside corner fittings, couplings, and end caps — all matched to the same profile. Using mixed-series fittings in a single raceway run creates step mismatches and channel gaps that compromise both appearance and cable protection. When planning a structured network or security cable installation, map your branch points in advance and order tee fittings by confirmed count. If your run includes right-angle turns or end terminations, source those from the same 2700 Series line to maintain system integrity across the full installation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is the Middle Atlantic 2715 TAA compliant?

A: Yes. The 2715 carries TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliance, making it eligible for U.S. federal government contracts and GSA schedule projects.

Q: What raceway series is the 2715 compatible with?

A: The 2715 is designed specifically for the Middle Atlantic 2700 Series non-metallic raceway system. It is not a universal fitting and should not be substituted into other profile families without verifying dimensional compatibility.

Q: What is the maximum cable diameter the 2715 accommodates?

A: The 2715 supports a maximum cable diameter of 3.2 cm (approximately 1.26 inches), sufficient for bundled low-voltage runs common in security and A/V installations.

Q: What material is the 2715 made from?

A: The 2715 is constructed from PVC (polyvinyl chloride), the standard material for non-metallic surface raceway fittings in commercial interior environments.

Q: How many units come in a package?

A: The 2715 is sold as a single unit (1 pc per pack), allowing precise quantity ordering for projects where branch points are pre-counted.

Q: Can the 2715 be used in federal government installations?

A: Yes. The TAA compliance status of the 2715 satisfies the sourcing requirements for most U.S. federal procurement vehicles, including GSA schedule purchases at government facilities.

The 2715 is a straightforward tee fitting, but the detail that matters most in practice is the 3.2 cm maximum cable diameter — that's the spec that determines whether your bundled run actually fits through the junction cleanly or forces a re-route on the job site. I've seen installs where someone grabbed a mismatched tee at the last minute and ended up with a pinched bundle or a gap in the channel cover that required filler. The 2715's profile match to the 2700 Series avoids that entirely.

Technical Highlights:

• TAA Compliance: Confirmed TAA-compliant — no documentation chase for federal, GSA, or government-adjacent bids. This fitting clears the sourcing requirement without a waiver.
• PVC Construction: PVC is the right material for surface raceway in conditioned interiors — it won't rust, it cuts cleanly with a utility knife for minor length adjustments, and it holds paint if the client wants a custom color match later.
• 3.2 cm Channel Capacity: Enough room for a Cat6 + RG59 + 18/2 power bundle side-by-side, which covers the typical camera drop. If you're running thicker armored or plenum cable, measure the bundle before the tee goes on the wall.

Deployment Considerations:

• Source all fittings — tees, corners, end caps, couplings — from the same 2700 Series line. Mixing profile families creates channel steps that are visible on final walkthrough and may not pass institutional inspection.
• The ivory colorway is a close match to standard commercial off-white, but it is not a perfect match to every manufacturer's white trim. If color consistency is critical, order a sample before committing to a large run.

Best deployment fit: government buildings, healthcare corridors, and institutional spaces running surface-mount low-voltage security or A/V cabling where TAA compliance is a procurement requirement and a clean, matched finish is expected at inspection.
