Belden 6300FE 877U, Commercial Audio Cable 2C 18 AWG FLRST FS Natural

Belden 6300FE 877U is a Plenum-CMP security & commercial audio cable with 2 stranded 18 AWG BC - Bare Copper conductors and PVC - Polyvinyl Chloride insulation. An overall tape shield (Bi-Laminate (Alum+Poly), 100% coverage) and a 24 AWG (7x32) TC drainwire support noise rejection in signal runs. The PVC - Polyvinyl Chloride jacket includes a ripcord and has a 0.162 in (4.11 mm) nominal overall diameter for routing. It is rated 300 V and meets NFPA 262 and UL 910 (Plenum).

Key Features

• Plenum-CMP rated construction for indoor - plenum and indoor installations.
• 2 stranded 18 AWG BC - Bare Copper conductors with PVC - Polyvinyl Chloride insulation.
• Overall tape shield with Bi-Laminate (Alum+Poly) material and 100% coverage, plus a 24 AWG (7x32) TC drainwire.
• PVC - Polyvinyl Chloride jacket with ripcord and a 0.162 in (4.11 mm) nominal overall cable diameter.
• Meets NFPA 262 and UL 910 (Plenum) flammability / reaction to fire requirements.

Applications

• Use in security system installations where a plenum-rated cable is required for indoor pathways.
• Run in intercom/PA systems where shielded construction supports cleaner signal transfer.
• Install for audio/speaker wiring where consistent electrical characteristics are needed across the run.
• Route through noisy environments where the overall shield and drainwire help reduce interference.
