Belden Inc. 5506FE 0051000 Multimedia Cable 22 Awg

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. 5506FE 0051000 is a multiconductor multimedia cable built for signal and low-voltage data distribution in commercial and residential installations. This cable features 8 conductors at 22 AWG, a foil shield for interference rejection, and a flame-retardant PVC jacket rated for indoor use. The green jacket aids in visual identification during rough-in and termination work. It is sold as a 1000-foot reel, making it well suited for structured wiring runs, audio distribution, and low-voltage control applications installed by licensed low-voltage or electrical contractors.

This cable is a practical choice for multimedia systems, background music distribution, intercom wiring, and similar low-voltage signal runs in light commercial and residential settings. The foil shield helps reject electromagnetic interference from nearby power conductors, making it appropriate for shared conduit or bundled cable environments. The 1000-foot quantity supports full-building distribution from a single reel, reducing splice points and simplifying documentation during inspection.

Key Features

• 8 conductors at 22 AWG for multi-channel signal or control wiring
• Foil shield provides EMI and RFI rejection along the full cable length
• Flame-retardant PVC jacket meets indoor fire safety requirements
• Green jacket color supports color-coded low-voltage installation practices
• 1000-foot reel length minimizes splices on long distribution runs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-stock multimedia cable suitable for low-voltage signal, audio, and control wiring applications in residential and light commercial systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage or electrical contractor in accordance with applicable NEC requirements for low-voltage wiring. De-energize all connected equipment before terminating or splicing this cable. Maintain minimum bend radius throughout the run to preserve shield continuity and conductor integrity. Do not route low-voltage signal cable in the same conduit as line-voltage conductors unless the cable is rated for that application and local code permits it.
