Description
Belden 5300F1 008 is a CM-rated Security & Sound Cable with 2-18 AWG stranded tinned copper conductors, PVC insulation, and a PVC jacket. It features an overall Beldfoil® tape shield with a 20 AWG (7x28) TC drainwire, plus waterblock tape for added protection in noisy, wet, and below-grade duct locations. The cable is UL Voltage Rating 300 V (CM) and includes a ripcord and sequential footage marking every two feet.
Key Features
- CM-rated Security & Sound Cable for security systems, intercom/PA, and audio/speaker runs.
- 2-18 AWG stranded tinned copper conductors with PVC insulation.
- Overall Beldfoil® tape shield with 100% coverage and a 20 AWG (7x28) TC drainwire.
- Waterblock tape for use in noisy, wet, and below-grade duct locations.
- PVC jacket with ripcord for easier stripping.
- UL Voltage Rating 300 V (CM).
- Sequential footage marking every two feet.
Applications
- Designed for security system wiring where a CM-rated Security & Sound Cable is required.
- Use it for intercom/PA installations that need shielded, waterblocked cabling in challenging pathways.
- Choose it for audio/speaker runs where an overall Beldfoil® tape shield and drainwire help reduce interference.
- Apply it in power-limited controls applications that specify UL Voltage Rating 300 V (CM).
- Route it in noisy & wet locations where waterblock tape is specified.
- Install it in below-grade duct pathways where added waterblocking protection is needed.
