Description
Belden 5342FE 008 is a Security & Sound Cable for Riser (CMR) installations, built with 3 pair(s) of 18 AWG stranded BC - Bare Copper conductors. It features PP - Polypropylene insulation, a Tape shield with 100% coverage, and a PVC - Polyvinyl Chloride jacket with ripcord. Key electrical and compliance details include a UL Voltage Rating of 300 V, UL temperature of 75°C, and flammability ratings of UL 1666 Riser, FT4, IEC 60332-1-2.
Key Features
- 3 pair(s) of 18 AWG stranded BC - Bare Copper conductors (Stranding: 7x26).
- Tape shield made from Bi-Laminate (Alum+Poly) with 100% coverage.
- 24 AWG (7x32) TC drainwire included for grounding.
- PVC - Polyvinyl Chloride jacket with ripcord for easier stripping.
- Sequential footage marking every two feet supports faster measuring and pulls.
Applications
- Use in security system installations where a riser-rated cable is required.
- Choose for intercom/PA wiring runs that benefit from a shielded construction.
- Support audio/speaker connections in environments where noise can affect signal integrity.
- Install in power-limited controls circuits requiring a 300 V rated cable.
- Fit for noisy environment installations where shielding helps protect signal integrity.
