Belden 6100UE 010 is a plenum-rated security & commercial audio cable for intercom/PA systems and sound/audio installations. It is built with 2 x 14 AWG stranded BC - Bare Copper conductors, PVC - Polyvinyl Chloride insulation, and a PVC - Polyvinyl Chloride jacket. Designed for indoor plenum spaces, it meets CL2P requirements and is rated 300 V and 75°C. A ripcord and sequential footage marking every two feet support easier stripping and cut-to-length accuracy.

Applications
- Use in intercom/PA systems where a plenum-rated audio cable is required for indoor building spaces.
- Install in sound/audio systems that need consistent identification during pulls using sequential footage marking every two feet.
- Run in commercial audio systems where a ripcord can help simplify jacket removal during termination.
