The maximum vertical rise is the distance over which the cable is vertically self-supporting. This distance is a function of the weight of the cable and the:

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The maximum vertical rise is determined by the weight of the cable and the cable's maximum tensile rating. A cable with a higher tensile rating can support its own weight over a greater distance, allowing for a higher maximum vertical rise. The other options listed (sheath fire rating, number of strands of fiber, type of hangers, and type of fire stop) do not directly affect the maximum vertical rise of the cable.
