22 AWG 2-Pair FEP Plenum 200°C Shielded P.O.S. Cable

22 AWG 2-Pair FEP Plenum 200°C Shielded Cable

The RWC-FP22-2PFB is a 22 AWG, 2-pair FEP plenum cable with an overall foil and braid shield, Belden 89855 compatible. Four solid tinned copper conductors are twisted into 2 pairs and insulated with FEP. The cable is protected by an overall shield consisting of 100% aluminum foil plus a 56% tinned copper braid with polyester tape and a 22 AWG solid tinned copper drain wire. The black FEP outer jacket brings the overall diameter to 0.272 in.

Rated CMP per NEC Article 800, this cable is approved for installation in plenum air-handling spaces without conduit. The all-FEP construction handles continuous temperatures from −70°C to +200°C (UL rated 200°C) and provides inherent resistance to chemicals, oils, and UV exposure. The 100 Ohm characteristic impedance and dual foil+braid shield make it ideal for point of sale (POS), RS-485, and computer communication in demanding environments.
