Belden Inc. 1696A B591000 Shielded Multimedia Cable

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. 1696A B591000 is a 2-conductor, 22 AWG shielded multimedia cable with a PVC jacket finished in black matte. Designed for low-voltage signal transmission, this cable features an FHDPE (foamed high-density polyethylene) dielectric and an overall shield for noise rejection. The PVC outer jacket provides flexibility and resistance to abrasion and moisture in typical indoor installation environments. Licensed electricians and low-voltage technicians install this cable in structured wiring, audio-visual distribution, and control wiring applications where signal integrity and shielding are required.

This cable is suited for residential and light commercial multimedia, audio, and low-voltage control installations. It is appropriate for in-wall and conduit runs where a shielded, flexible 2-conductor cable is specified. The black matte jacket finish reduces glare in exposed or semi-exposed routing scenarios and meets the visual requirements of finished spaces. Installers working on structured media, security, or intercom systems commonly select this cable for its shielding performance and durable jacket construction.

Key Features

• 2-conductor configuration for paired signal or control circuits
• 22 AWG FHDPE dielectric construction for signal clarity
• Overall shield for electromagnetic interference rejection
• PVC black matte jacket for flexibility and abrasion resistance
• Sold individually as a single unit per the manufacturer unit of measure

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or specification-grade multimedia cable for low-voltage signal and control wiring applications requiring a 2-conductor shielded construction.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or qualified low-voltage technician in accordance with NEC Article 725 or the applicable local code for signal and control wiring. De-energize all circuits before terminating or splicing. Avoid sharp bends below the cable minimum bend radius and do not over-cinch cable ties, as either can degrade shielding continuity and signal performance.
