Belden Inc. 7958A 0101000 4-pair 24 Awg Shielded Cable

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. 7958A 0101000 is a 4-pair, 24 AWG foil-shielded cable constructed with a flame-retardant PVC (FR-PVC) jacket. It is designed for low-voltage signal and control wiring applications where electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding and fire-code compliance are required. The foil shield provides continuous 100% coverage around each pair, reducing signal noise and crosstalk. Licensed electricians and low-voltage wiring technicians are the primary installers. This cable is sold per unit as indicated by the supplier unit-of-measure designation.

This cable is suited for use in commercial and residential control wiring, HVAC building automation systems, security systems, and general instrumentation runs where a shielded, multi-pair cable is required. The FR-PVC jacket makes it appropriate for installation in environments that require flame-retardant materials per applicable electrical codes. It is typically routed through conduit or cable trays in mechanical rooms, plenum spaces, and control panels where signal integrity must be maintained over longer runs.

Key Features

• 4-pair configuration with 24 AWG conductors for low-voltage signal and control circuits
• Foil shield (FS) provides 100% EMI and RFI coverage around conductor pairs
• Flame-retardant PVC jacket rated for fire-code-compliant installations
• Compact multi-pair layout reduces conduit fill compared to running individual conductors
• Suitable for building automation, HVAC controls, and instrumentation wiring

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose 4-pair shielded control cable suitable for low-voltage signal wiring applications in HVAC, building automation, and instrumentation systems where 24 AWG foil-shielded cable is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or qualified low-voltage technician in accordance with NFPA 70 (NEC) requirements for the applicable circuit type and occupancy. De-energize all circuits before terminating conductors. Maintain the foil shield integrity and connect the drain wire to a common ground point at one end only to prevent ground loops. Avoid sharp bends and excessive pulling tension during routing to preserve cable performance.
