Belden 5407FE 008 is a security & sound cable built with 9 stranded 20 AWG BC - Bare Copper conductors and PP - Polypropylene insulation. It uses an overall tape shield made from Bi-Laminate (Alum+Poly) with 100% coverage and a 24 AWG (7x32) TC drainwire type to support noise rejection in noisy environments. The PVC - Polyvinyl Chloride jacket includes a ripcord, and the cable is sequentially footage marked every two feet. It is rated UL1666 Riser, FT4 with NEC / UL compliance Article 800, CMR and a UL Voltage Rating of 300 V.
Key Features

Applications
- Use in security system installations where multi-conductor wiring is needed for signal and control connections.
- Support intercom/PA systems that require organized multi-conductor runs for audio and control wiring.
- Choose for audio/speaker wiring where shielding helps reduce interference in noisy environments.
- Fit power-limited controls where multiple conductors support control and signaling connections.
- Install in noisy environment applications where the overall shield and drain wire support noise rejection.
