Belden Inc. 1068A0102500 24 Pair 18 Awg Multimedia Cable

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. 1068A0102500 is a 24-pair, 18 AWG multimedia cable constructed with PVC insulation, a nylon separator, an overall foil shield, and a PVC outer jacket. This cable is designed for signal transmission in structured wiring systems where multiple conductor pairs are required in a single run. The foil shield reduces electromagnetic interference, making it suitable for low-voltage audio, data, and control signal applications. Installation is performed by licensed electricians or low-voltage cabling technicians working in commercial and light industrial environments.

This cable is suited for in-wall or conduit installations in commercial buildings, office environments, and multi-zone audio or control systems. Its 24-pair construction allows a single cable run to serve multiple circuits or zones simultaneously, reducing conduit fill and labor time. Applications include intercom wiring, building automation control wiring, and distributed audio or communications infrastructure where shielded multi-pair cable is specified.

Key Features

• 24 conductor pairs in a single cable for high-density wiring runs
• 18 AWG conductors sized for low-voltage signal and control circuits
• PVC insulation with nylon separator for durability and conductor separation
• Overall foil shield reduces electromagnetic interference on signal pairs
• PVC outer jacket suitable for conduit or in-wall installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use multi-pair shielded cable for commercial multimedia, low-voltage control, and structured wiring installations requiring 24-pair 18 AWG shielded cable.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or certified low-voltage technician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements for the cable type and installation environment. De-energize all circuits before terminating conductors. Avoid sharp bends that exceed the cable minimum bend radius, and do not run alongside high-voltage conductors without adequate separation or shielding. Terminate the foil shield drain wire to ground at one end only to prevent ground loops on signal circuits.
