Running CAT5 down warehouse wall

[Transition]

Hey guys,

Finished up 3 line drops in one of our warehouses - can't get 2 of the lines in the wall so i'll need to mount them against the wall (keep in mind this is a warehouse environment). I don't want to leave these dangling in the air so i'm thinking i'll enclose them in something, like electrical coping. What's code, or recommended for containing these 2 cables?

Keep in mind i might want to have a couple additional future drops route through this same location (ie through the coping).

You could probably get away with cable clips with concrete nails (the blue ones)

panduit?

By Panduit he means plastic or metal raceway for cables. For a warehouse application I would use metal Wiremold Raceway, I believe it is 500 series. www.wiremold.com
Plenum is a rating for cables in ceilings that are used as air returns. As far as I know there is no such thing as plenum raceway, because it does not normally go into the drop ceiling area.
