Belden 5345FE 008, Multi Conductor Cable 6 Pair 18 AWG FRPVC Gray

Description
Belden 5345FE 008 is a Security & Sound Cable for Riser (CMR) installations, built with 6 pairs of 18 AWG stranded bare copper conductors and a gray PVC jacket. Polyolefin insulation and an overall Beldfoil® tape shield with a drain wire help support signal integrity in noisy environments. Key electrical characteristics include a 300 V rating, 6.93 Ohm/1000ft nominal conductor DCR, and 29 pF/ft (95 pF/m) nominal capacitance Cond-to-Cond. The jacket includes a ripcord and sequential footage marking every two feet to help speed stripping, pulls, and measurement.
Belden 5345FE 008 Key Features
- 6 pairs of 18 AWG stranded bare copper conductors for security, sound, and control circuit wiring.
- Overall Beldfoil® tape shield with a drain wire to help manage interference in noisy environments.
- Gray PVC jacket with a ripcord to support easier stripping during installation.
- Sequential footage marking every two feet to help track length during pulls and layout.
- Riser (CMR) construction for vertical pathway installations.
- 300 V rating for power-limited and related low-voltage circuit applications.
Belden 5345FE 008 Applications
- Supports security system wiring where multiple paired conductors are needed for organized terminations.
- Fits intercom/PA installations that require paired conductors for signal distribution.
- Integrates into audio/speaker setups where shielded construction is preferred in noisy environments.
- Serves power-limited controls in building and system control circuits.
- Helps manage interference in noisy environment installations that use an overall shield and drain wire.
