Belden Inc. 1695A 877500 Multimedia Cable Plenum

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. 1695A 877500 is a shielded multimedia cable constructed with a fluorinated ethylene propylene (FFEP) insulation and jacket, rated for plenum air-handling space installation. The FFEP compound provides low smoke and flame spread characteristics required by plenum fire codes. This cable carries an 18-designation indicating its conductor configuration and is finished in a natural jacket color, making it suitable for structured cabling installations where plenum-rated media runs are required. Licensed electricians and low-voltage cabling technicians are the primary installers for this type of cable in commercial and institutional environments.

This cable is suited for multimedia signal distribution in commercial buildings, data centers, broadcast facilities, and any structure where cable must pass through plenum air-handling spaces. Its shielded construction helps reject electromagnetic interference (EMI) on long runs in electrically noisy environments. The natural jacket color accommodates sites where cable identification or color-coding practices are managed at the installer level. It ships as a single unit (EA) per the supplier unit of measure.

Key Features

• FFEP insulation and jacket rated for plenum air-handling space installation
• Shielded construction for EMI rejection on multimedia signal runs
• Natural jacket color for flexible field identification
• Plenum fire rating meets low smoke and flame spread requirements for air-handling spaces
• Designed for structured multimedia cabling in commercial and institutional applications

Compatibility

Designed as a plenum-rated shielded multimedia cable for use in structured cabling systems in commercial, institutional, and broadcast environments where FFEP plenum cable is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation of plenum-rated cable in air-handling spaces must comply with NFPA 70 (National Electrical Code) Article 800 and any applicable local amendments governing communications wiring. Power down or de-energize any adjacent signal systems before terminating or pulling cable through shared pathways. Low-voltage cabling technicians and licensed electricians should verify that the plenum rating matches the specific air-handling space classification on the job. Avoid sharp bends beyond the minimum bend radius during pulling to prevent damage to the shielded construction.
