Belden Inc. 658GMS 0001000 Multimedia Cable

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. 658GMS 0001000 is a multimedia cable designed for structured wiring applications that require multiple conductor groupings within a single jacket. The cable combines several conductor configurations — including 22 AWG and 18 AWG groupings — making it suited for installations where audio, control, and low-voltage signal runs must be bundled together. Licensed electrical and low-voltage technicians typically specify this cable type for commercial and residential integration projects where conduit fill and cable management are critical considerations.

This multimedia cable is used in applications that call for multiple independent signal paths within one sheathed assembly. Typical install scenarios include structured wiring panels, audio-video distribution systems, access control wiring, and building automation control runs. The combination of 22 AWG and 18 AWG conductors within one cable supports diverse signal and power requirements across a single cable pull, reducing labor and tray space in multi-system installations.

Key Features

• Multiple conductor groupings in a single cable assembly for consolidated routing
• Includes 22 AWG conductor groups suitable for low-voltage signal and audio applications
• Includes 18 AWG conductor group for higher-current low-voltage control circuits
• Foil shield (FS) on select conductor groups for interference rejection in mixed-signal environments
• Sold as a single unit (EA) per the supplier unit of measure

Compatibility

Designed as a multimedia cable for low-voltage structured wiring systems where multiple conductor types are required in a single cable assembly. No specific compatible equipment models or system families were provided in the product data.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage or electrical technician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements for the cable type and installation environment. De-energize all circuits before terminating conductors. Maintain minimum bend radius to preserve conductor and shield integrity, and avoid bundling with high-voltage conductors in the same conduit or raceway unless the cable is rated for that application.
