Belden Inc. 1855P 0101000 Multimedia Cable Plenum

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. 1855P 0101000 is a plenum-rated multimedia cable designed for professional audio, video, and data signal transmission in commercial and institutional installations. This cable features a fluorinated ethylene propylene (FFEP) insulation and jacket, which meets plenum-space fire and smoke requirements without the need for conduit in many plenum air-handling environments. The black outer jacket provides a clean, professional finish. Low-capacitance construction supports signal integrity across runs typical in commercial AV and broadcast distribution systems. Installation is handled by licensed low-voltage electricians and AV systems integrators.

This cable is suited for plenum ceiling and raised-floor air-handling spaces in commercial buildings, broadcast facilities, conference centers, and institutional environments. The plenum rating makes it a standard choice where building codes require CMP-rated cable in air-return spaces. It is packaged and sold as a single unit (EA) and is appropriate for structured wiring pulls where signal quality and code compliance are both priorities.

Key Features

• FFEP (fluorinated ethylene propylene) insulation and jacket for plenum-rated fire and smoke performance
• Plenum-space approved construction suitable for open air-handling installations per applicable building codes
• Black outer jacket for professional, finished appearance in visible or semi-visible runs
• Shielded construction helps reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI) in signal-sensitive environments
• Designed for multimedia applications including professional AV, video, and data signal distribution

Compatibility

Designed as a plenum-rated multimedia cable for use in commercial low-voltage signal distribution systems where CMP-rated cable is required by local or national building codes.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage electrician or qualified AV systems integrator familiar with NEC plenum-space wiring requirements. De-energize and verify all circuits in the work area before pulling cable through plenum spaces or conduit. Avoid sharp bends that exceed the cable minimum bend radius, as this can degrade shielding effectiveness and signal performance. Follow all applicable local and national electrical codes for plenum cable routing and termination.
