Belden 1514C B59, Multi Conductor Cable 16 Pair 24 AWG PVC

Description
Belden 1514C B59 is a CM-rated audio snake cable designed for multi-channel interconnects between audio equipment such as microphones, speakers, amplifiers, and mixing consoles. It uses 16 tinned copper pairs with 24 AWG stranded (7x32) conductors, polyolefin insulation, and individually shielded Beldfoil® for 100% coverage. Numbered/color-coded PVC jackets are bonded to the shields to strip simultaneously, and an overall Beldfoil® shield with a drain wire helps reduce noise in analog audio runs. Designed for indoor use (not riser or plenum), it supports live events or studio sound applications.
