Middle Atlantic NM TEE FO/CAT5 2900 FOG W - 2915FO-FW

Middle Atlantic 2915FO-FW Uniduct 2900 Series Radiused Tee Fitting

Overview

The Middle Atlantic 2915FO-FW is a radiused tee fitting designed specifically for the 2900 Series Uniduct cable management system. If you're running fiber optic or CAT5 pathways through a raceway installation and need a clean three-way branch point, this fitting handles the transition without sharp bends that can stress cable runs. The 2915FO-FW ships in fog white PVC to match standard 2900 Series duct, keeping finished installations visually consistent in commercial wall and ceiling deployments.

PVC construction keeps the fitting lightweight and easy to cut or adjust on-site, while the radiused interior geometry protects sensitive fiber optic cable from bend-radius violations at the tee junction — a real consideration when you're branching fiber laterally off a main trunk run.

Key Features

• 2900 Series Compatibility: Engineered to integrate directly with Middle Atlantic's 2900 Series Uniduct raceway — no adapter plates, no shimming required. Drop it into an existing 2900 run and the fit is immediate, which matters when you're working to a tight installation schedule on a multi-floor cable plant.
• TAA Compliant: The 2915FO-FW carries TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliance, meaning it qualifies for U.S. federal government projects, GSA schedules, and other procurement vehicles that require domestic or TAA-designated country sourcing. If you're bidding government or education work, this box is checked.
• PVC Construction: Polyvinyl chloride is the right material call for interior cable management — it resists moisture, won't corrode, and is simple to cut cleanly with standard installation tools. Weight stays low, which simplifies overhead mounting without adding stress to suspended ceiling or wall-mount hardware.
• Radiused Tee Geometry: The fitting's radiused interior corners — not sharp 90-degree bends — keep fiber optic cable above its minimum bend radius through the junction. A sharp tee at a high-cable-count branch point is a common source of optical attenuation or long-term jacket fatigue; the 2915FO-FW's geometry eliminates that failure mode.
• Maximum Cable Diameter 3.2 cm: With a stated maximum cable diameter of 3.2 cm (approximately 1.26 inches), this tee accommodates bundled runs of smaller-gauge data cable or individual larger trunks — enough capacity for typical structured cabling branch points in commercial AV, surveillance, or IT infrastructure deployments.
• Fog White Finish: The fog white color matches standard 2900 Series duct and blends into most commercial interior environments — drywall corridors, drop-ceiling spaces, and above-tile infrastructure. If aesthetics matter to your client (and in tenant-facing spaces they often do), color consistency across fittings and straight runs avoids the mismatched patchwork look of mixed-lot installations.
• Single-Piece Pack Quantity: Sold individually (1 pc per pack), so you can order exactly the quantity your run requires without accumulating leftover fittings. Useful when you're closing out a project punch list and need one or two more branch points.
• Universal Purpose: Rated for universal cable management use — not limited to a specific cable type. While the product name references FO (fiber optic) and CAT5, the fitting will accommodate any cable that fits within the 3.2 cm diameter constraint.

Integration & Compatibility

The 2915FO-FW (often searched as 2915FO FW) is purpose-built for Middle Atlantic's 2900 Series Uniduct raceway system. It pairs with 2900 Series straight runs, inside corners, outside corners, and flat elbows to build out complete cable management pathways. If you're specifying a structured cabling installation using the Middle Atlantic cable management line, this fitting integrates without modification into the existing system architecture.

For surveillance and security infrastructure projects, this type of cable duct fitting is commonly used to branch surveillance camera cable runs from main trunk raceways to individual camera drops — keeping fiber and CAT5 protected and routed cleanly from the NVR or network switch closet out to edge devices. Pair with PoE switch infrastructure and structured cabling for a fully managed installation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is the Middle Atlantic 2915FO-FW TAA compliant?

A: Yes. The 2915FO-FW is TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliant, making it eligible for use on federal government contracts, GSA schedule procurements, and other projects requiring TAA-designated sourcing.

Q: What cable management system does the 2915FO-FW fit?

A: The 2915FO-FW is designed specifically for Middle Atlantic's 2900 Series Uniduct raceway system. It will not directly fit other raceway series without confirming dimensional compatibility.

Q: What is the maximum cable diameter the 2915FO-FW can accommodate?

A: The stated maximum cable diameter is 3.2 cm (approximately 1.26 inches), which is sufficient for bundled data cable runs typical in structured cabling, surveillance, and AV infrastructure installations.

Q: What material is the 2915FO-FW made from?

A: The fitting is constructed from PVC (polyvinyl chloride) — a standard material for non-metallic interior cable management that resists moisture, is easy to cut on-site, and keeps installation weight low.

Q: What color is the 2915FO-FW?

A: Fog white, matching the standard 2900 Series Uniduct color for a consistent finished appearance in commercial interior installations.

Q: How many pieces are included per order?

A: One piece per pack. The 2915FO-FW is sold as a single fitting, allowing you to order the exact quantity needed for your installation.

Karl Wilson

The 2915FO-FW is the fitting you reach for when you're branching a fiber optic or CAT5 run off a 2900 Series main trunk and need to maintain the cable's bend radius through the junction — the radiused interior geometry is what separates this from a generic tee that puts a hard corner against your fiber jacket. In commercial surveillance and structured cabling installs, that distinction matters when you're pulling 50-meter fiber runs to edge cameras and can't afford attenuation from a crimped branch point.

Technical Highlights:

• Radiused Interior Geometry: Protects fiber optic cable through the tee junction — critical for maintaining signal integrity on longer FO runs where even minor bend-radius violations cause measurable optical loss.
• TAA Compliance: Clears the sourcing gate for federal, state, and education projects on GSA schedules — one less line item to chase down during submittal review.
• 3.2 cm Max Cable Diameter: Accommodates bundled structured cabling typical of branch drops in commercial surveillance and AV infrastructure, without requiring upsizing to a larger duct series.

Deployment Considerations:

• Confirm you're working with 2900 Series duct before ordering — the fitting is dimensioned for that specific raceway and won't drop into other Middle Atlantic duct series without a dimensional check.
• Fog white finish matches standard 2900 Series duct, but if your installation mixes duct lots from different production runs, verify color consistency before final close-out — PVC color can vary slightly between batches.

Best fit for commercial interior cable plant installations — surveillance camera branch runs, structured cabling distribution legs, or AV pathway buildouts — where TAA compliance is a bid requirement and fiber bend-radius protection at branch points is non-negotiable.
