Belden Inc. 86200605000 Multimedia Cable 4C 16 Awg

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. 86200605000 is a multimedia cable constructed with 4 conductors at 16 AWG gauge, featuring a PVC jacket with a flame-retardant PVC (FR-PVC) inner construction. This cable is designed for signal and low-voltage wiring applications in commercial and residential installations where fire-resistance ratings and reliable conductor integrity are required. The FR-PVC insulation provides added protection in environments where flame spread must be limited. Licensed electricians and low-voltage technicians are the primary installers for this type of cable in structured wiring and multimedia distribution systems.

This cable is suited for multimedia distribution, audio, and low-voltage control wiring applications in both residential and light commercial settings. It is typically pulled through conduit or routed through wall cavities and ceilings as part of structured wiring installations. The 4-conductor configuration supports multi-channel signal routing, making it a practical choice for speaker wiring, intercom systems, and similar distributed multimedia applications where consistent conductor sizing and insulation quality are critical.

Key Features

• 4-conductor configuration supports multi-channel signal and audio wiring
• 16 AWG conductor gauge provides low resistance over extended cable runs
• FR-PVC insulation reduces flame spread in enclosed building spaces
• PVC outer jacket offers durability and flexibility during installation
• Sold per individual unit (EA) for straightforward procurement

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use multimedia cable for low-voltage 4-conductor wiring applications in structured multimedia and audio distribution systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or certified low-voltage technician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements for low-voltage wiring. De-energize all circuits before terminating or splicing the cable. Avoid sharp bends beyond the cable minimum bend radius to prevent conductor damage. Verify local code requirements for plenum versus riser-rated cable before routing through return-air spaces.
