Belden Inc. 8620 0601000 Multimedia Cable 4C 16AWG

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. 8620 0601000 is a 4-conductor, 16 AWG multimedia cable designed for structured wiring, audio distribution, and low-voltage signal or power runs in commercial and residential installations. Constructed with PVC insulation and a flame-retardant PVC (FR-PVC) jacket, this cable is built to meet the demands of professional installers working in walls, ceilings, and conduit pathways. The chrome jacket coloring aids in identification on multi-cable runs. It is sold per unit (EA) and is handled by licensed electricians, low-voltage technicians, and AV integrators.

This cable is suited for multimedia and structured cabling applications including background audio, intercom wiring, speaker distribution, and similar low-voltage signal or power circuits. Its 16 AWG conductor gauge supports longer runs with reduced voltage drop, making it appropriate for distributed audio systems and in-wall installations in both light commercial and residential environments. Installers working on AV integration, home automation, or building communications infrastructure will find this cable a standard fit for those system types.

Key Features

• 4-conductor configuration for multi-channel or paired signal and power runs
• 16 AWG conductor gauge supports longer low-voltage runs with lower resistance
• PVC insulation protects individual conductors from mechanical damage and moisture
• Flame-retardant PVC (FR-PVC) outer jacket for improved fire performance in building interiors
• Chrome jacket for easy visual identification in multi-cable installations
• Sold as a single unit (EA) for flexible quantity ordering

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-fit option for multimedia and structured low-voltage wiring applications requiring 4-conductor, 16 AWG cable with FR-PVC jacketing.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or certified low-voltage technician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements for the cable type and installation environment. De-energize any circuits before terminating or connecting conductors. Avoid sharp bends beyond the cable minimum bend radius and do not staple through the jacket, as either can damage insulation and affect signal integrity. Verify local code requirements for plenum versus non-plenum rated cable before installing in air-handling spaces.
