Paige Electric 258440309 GameChanger FT4 Riser Cable Box
The 258440309 is a 1000-foot box of Paige Electric's GameChanger FT4 riser-rated cable, packaged in an alternate color option for jobs where standard cable jacket colors need to be distinguished by circuit, floor, or system. FT4 flame rating makes this cable suitable for riser applications inside commercial buildings where vertical shaft runs need a fire-rated jacket. The pull-box format (15" x 12" x 15", 34 lb loaded) lets installers feed cable directly off the reel without unspooling it on-site — a real time saver on multi-floor PoE camera or access control rollouts.
Compatibility
This is a general-purpose structured cabling product, not tied to a specific camera or NVR line. It fits any installation spec calling for FT4-rated riser cable — commonly paired with PoE-powered IP cameras, access control readers, and intercom endpoints where a 15-15W (802.3af) power budget per run is standard practice. Because it ships in alternate colors, it works well for jobs already running standard-color Paige GameChanger cable where a second circuit, tenant, or system needs visual separation at the patch panel and pull points.
Installation Notes
Riser-rated FT4 cable is built for vertical runs between floors inside a riser shaft — confirm local code before substituting it for plenum-rated cable in air-handling spaces, since FT4 and plenum ratings are not interchangeable. The 1000' box format supports box-fed installation (cable dispenses through a hole in the box), which keeps the reel stationary and reduces kinking on long pulls. Wall-mount the box near the pull point rather than the far end of the run to keep tension consistent.
What's in the Box
- 1000 feet of Paige GameChanger FT4 cable, alternate color, in a single pull box
Pair this with network video recorders or IP cameras at the head end, and check a PoE planning guide before finalizing run lengths and power budgets. For patch-side hardware, see PoE switches sized to the port count this run feeds, and browse the full Paige Electric cable catalog for matching plenum or standard-color options.
