Belden Inc. 5240U1 010Z1000 1-pair 16 Awg Cable

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. 5240U1 010Z1000 is a 1-pair, 16 AWG multimedia cable with a PVC jacket and PVC insulation in a black finish. It is designed for low-voltage signal and control wiring applications in commercial and light industrial environments. The PVC construction provides durability and flame resistance suited to in-wall or conduit routing. Licensed electricians and low-voltage contractors install this cable as part of structured wiring, audio distribution, or control system runs where a compact, paired conductor format is required.

This cable is suited for multimedia, audio, and control wiring installations in commercial buildings, schools, offices, and similar facilities. Its 16 AWG conductor size supports moderate-length runs where signal integrity and current capacity are both considerations. The 1-pair configuration makes it a straightforward choice for point-to-point or daisy-chained control circuits, intercoms, and background audio systems.

Key Features

• 1-pair, 16 AWG conductor configuration for low-voltage signal and control circuits
• PVC jacket and PVC insulation for durability and standard flame performance
• Black jacket finish for easy identification and clean installation appearance
• Compact paired format suited to conduit, raceway, or in-wall routing
• Sold per unit as a multimedia cable category product

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1-pair 16 AWG PVC multimedia cable suitable for low-voltage control, audio distribution, and signal wiring applications where this conductor size and pair count meet system design requirements.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or qualified low-voltage contractor in accordance with applicable NEC requirements for the cable type and installation environment. De-energize all circuits before making terminations. Route cable away from high-voltage conductors to minimize interference, and follow bend-radius guidelines appropriate for PVC-jacketed cable to avoid insulation damage.
