Middle Atlantic NM TEE FO/CAT5 2800 White - 2815FO-WH

Middle Atlantic 2815FO-WH Uniduct 2800 Series Radiused Tee Fitting

The Middle Atlantic 2815FO-WH is a non-metallic PVC tee fitting engineered for use with the 2800 Series Uniduct raceway system. If you're routing low-voltage cabling — fiber, CAT5, or control wiring — through a structured surface-mount raceway and need a clean, code-compliant branch point, this is the fitting that keeps your run continuous without improvised cuts or exposed junction points. The 2815FO-WH ships in white to match standard 2800 Series installations and carries TAA compliance for federally procured projects.

Key Features

• TAA Compliant: The 2815FO-WH meets Trade Agreements Act requirements, which matters for government facilities, GSA-schedule procurement, and federally funded projects where country-of-origin compliance is a contract condition — not just a checkbox.
• 2800 Series Compatibility: Designed specifically for the Middle Atlantic Uniduct 2800 Series raceway, this tee fitting integrates directly without adapters or shimming. Mixing raceway components across series is a common field mistake that results in gaps, misaligned covers, and failed inspections — staying within the 2800 Series family avoids that entirely.
• PVC Construction: Polyvinyl chloride is the standard material choice for non-metallic raceway in commercial interiors — it's lightweight, won't corrode, and doesn't require grounding the way metallic conduit does. For data and low-voltage runs, PVC keeps the installation straightforward.
• Maximum 3.2 cm Cable Diameter: The fitting accommodates cables up to 3.2 cm in diameter, which covers most structured cabling scenarios including bundled CAT5/CAT6 runs and standard fiber patch cables. If you're routing larger bundles or multi-conduit assemblies, verify your fill capacity before committing to this fitting size.
• White Finish: Matches white 2800 Series duct and covers for a continuous, professional appearance on painted drywall, drop-ceiling grids, and perimeter wall runs where aesthetics matter to the end customer.
• Universal Purpose: Rated for general-purpose cable management rather than a specific cable type — fiber, copper data, low-voltage control, and similar signal-level wiring are all appropriate applications.
• Single-Pack Quantity: Sold individually, giving you precise quantity control when completing a partial run or replacing a damaged fitting without purchasing bulk quantities.

Integration and Compatibility

The 2815FO-WH (often searched as 2815FO WH) is designed exclusively for the Middle Atlantic 2800 Series Uniduct raceway system. Before ordering, confirm that your existing raceway installation uses 2800 Series components — the fitting profile, cover snap dimensions, and mounting geometry are series-specific. For new installations, pair this tee with matching 2800 Series straight sections, end caps, and inside/outside corner fittings to complete a fully integrated cable management run. This fitting is appropriate for surface-mounted raceway in commercial interiors; it is not rated for outdoor or wet-location use unless the full raceway system is specifically rated for that environment. For structured cabling planning in security and AV installations, consult a raceway and cord covers selection guide to confirm fitting type and fill capacity before committing to a layout.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is the 2815FO-WH TAA compliant?

A: Yes. The 2815FO-WH carries TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliance, making it eligible for use on federally procured and GSA-schedule projects where country-of-origin requirements apply.

Q: What raceway series is the 2815FO-WH compatible with?

A: The 2815FO-WH is designed specifically for the Middle Atlantic Uniduct 2800 Series raceway system. It is not intended for use with other raceway series.

Q: What is the maximum cable diameter the 2815FO-WH accommodates?

A: The fitting supports cables up to 3.2 cm in diameter, covering most standard structured cabling applications including CAT5, CAT6, and typical fiber patch cables.

Q: What material is the 2815FO-WH made from?

A: It is constructed from PVC (polyvinyl chloride), a standard non-metallic material for commercial low-voltage raceway fittings.

Q: Is the 2815FO-WH sold individually or in bulk packs?

A: It is sold as a single unit (1 pc per pack), allowing precise quantity ordering for partial runs or replacement installations.

Q: Can the 2815FO-WH be used outdoors?

A: The 2815FO-WH is a non-metallic interior fitting. Outdoor or wet-location use is only appropriate if the complete 2800 Series raceway system in use is specifically rated for that environment — confirm with the full system rating before installing in exposed locations.

The 2815FO-WH is the detail fitting that integrators overlook until they're standing in front of a branch point with no clean way to split the run — at which point they're improvising with a utility knife and hoping the AHJ doesn't look too closely. This tee is rated for the 2800 Series specifically, accepts cables up to 3.2 cm, and comes in white PVC to match the standard 2800 Series color palette without painting or sleeving.

Technical Highlights:

• TAA Compliance: Verified TAA-compliant — a hard requirement on any federally funded or GSA-schedule low-voltage installation. If your project has a federal end user, this is non-negotiable and worth confirming at the bill-of-materials stage rather than after rough-in.
• 3.2 cm Max Cable Diameter: Accommodates most standard commercial cabling — bundled CAT5/CAT6 data runs and typical fiber patch cables fit comfortably. This is the spec to check before ordering if you're routing thicker bundles or multi-conductor control cable through the same duct.
• PVC Non-Metallic Construction: No grounding requirement, no corrosion risk, lighter than metallic alternatives — appropriate for interior low-voltage signal runs where the raceway won't be used as a ground path.

Deployment Considerations:

• Confirm your existing raceway is 2800 Series before ordering — Middle Atlantic's raceway lines are not cross-compatible at the fitting level, and a mismatched tee won't seat cleanly against the duct or accept the snap cover.
• Sold as a single unit, which is useful for punch-list replacements but means you'll want to count tee locations carefully during take-off to avoid multiple small orders on a larger installation.

This fitting is the right call for structured low-voltage raceway installations in commercial interiors — government offices, school AV infrastructure, and security system wiring runs where TAA compliance and a finished appearance are both required on the same project.
