Belden Inc. 1855A 0101000 Multimedia Cable Fr Pvc

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. 1855A 0101000 is a 23 AWG multimedia cable constructed with a polyethylene (PE) dielectric, a gas-injected foam high-density polyethylene (GIFHDPE) insulation system, and an overall flame-retardant PVC jacket in black. The cable features integral shielding for signal integrity in demanding installation environments. It is designed for structured cabling and multimedia distribution applications where low attenuation, reliable shielding, and flame-retardant jacket performance are required. Licensed cabling installers and low-voltage technicians are the primary trades working with this product.

This cable is suited for residential and commercial multimedia and data distribution systems. The FR PVC outer jacket meets flame-spread requirements common in plenum-adjacent or general building wiring scenarios. The GIFHDPE insulation contributes to consistent impedance and reduced signal loss across the cable run. It is typically pulled through conduit or open cable pathways during new construction or retrofit structured cabling projects.

Key Features

• 23 AWG conductor gauge for standard structured cabling performance
• Polyethylene (PE) dielectric for consistent electrical characteristics
• Gas-injected foam HDPE (GIFHDPE) insulation for reduced attenuation
• Overall shielding for EMI and RFI rejection
• Flame-retardant (FR) PVC outer jacket in black
• Designed for multimedia and data cable distribution applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style multimedia cable suitable for structured cabling and low-voltage signal distribution installations in residential and commercial buildings.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage or structured cabling technician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements for the cable type and routing environment. De-energize and verify the absence of voltage on any connected equipment before terminating or splicing. Observe minimum bend radius guidelines during pull to avoid compromising the shield or insulation. Confirm jacket and insulation ratings are appropriate for the specific plenum, riser, or general-use pathway before installation.
