Belden Inc. 82240 877Z1000 RG58/U Coaxial Cable

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. 82240 877Z1000 is an RG58/U coaxial cable constructed with a fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP) dielectric and jacket material rated for flame-resistant performance. RG58/U is a 50-ohm coaxial cable format widely used in low-power signal transmission, RF applications, and instrumentation wiring. The FEP construction provides enhanced heat resistance and low smoke characteristics compared to standard PVC-jacketed coax. This cable is sold per unit as indicated by the supplier unit-of-measure designation. Electricians, low-voltage technicians, and instrumentation specialists are the typical installers for this cable type.

This cable is suited for installations where flame-spread resistance is required by code or specification. Typical applications include signal distribution in commercial buildings, control panels, and instrumentation runs where FEP-rated cable is called out on drawings. The flame-resistant rating makes it appropriate for use in plenum-adjacent or similarly code-sensitive areas where standard coaxial cable may not meet project requirements. Verify local code compliance and applicable specifications before installation.

Key Features

• RG58/U coaxial cable format with 50-ohm nominal impedance
• FEP (fluorinated ethylene propylene) construction for flame-resistant performance
• Neutral jacket color for standard identification in cable runs
• Flame-resistant rating suited for code-sensitive commercial and industrial installations
• Sold as individual unit (EA)

Compatibility

Designed as an RG58/U-format coaxial cable compatible with standard 50-ohm RF connectors and terminations used in signal transmission and instrumentation applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or qualified low-voltage technician in accordance with applicable NEC articles governing coaxial and communications wiring. De-energize all associated circuits before terminating or splicing. Use appropriate coaxial stripping tools and compression or crimp connectors rated for RG58/U cable. Verify the flame-resistance rating meets the specific code requirements of the installation location before pulling cable.
