Genesis Cable 21015806 22/2 Solid Riser Cable 500 Ft Blue

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 21015806 is a 22 AWG, 2-conductor solid unshielded riser-rated cable supplied on a 500-foot spool in blue. Riser (CMR) rating qualifies this cable for vertical runs between floors in commercial and residential buildings, meeting fire-propagation requirements for in-wall and in-plenum-adjacent installations. Solid conductors maintain consistent resistance over long runs, making this cable well suited for low-voltage control wiring in security, fire alarm, access control, and building automation applications. Licensed low-voltage technicians and alarm installers are the primary end users.

This cable is used in low-voltage signal and control circuits where a riser fire rating is required by code. Typical installations include security system wiring, door access control runs, intercom circuits, and building automation sensor wiring. The blue jacket aids in circuit identification in multi-cable pathways and cable trays. It is appropriate for both new construction and retrofit projects where vertical shaft or wall-cavity routing is involved.

Key Features

• 22 AWG solid conductors provide stable resistance across extended runs
• Riser (CMR) rating meets fire-propagation requirements for vertical building runs
• Unshielded construction keeps installation straightforward in low-interference environments
• Blue jacket supports visual circuit identification in multi-wire installations
• 500-foot spool reduces the need for mid-run splices on longer pulls

Compatibility

Designed as a standard CMR-rated 22/2 solid unshielded cable suitable for low-voltage control, security, and building automation wiring applications where riser-rated cable is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage or alarm systems technician in accordance with NFPA 72, NEC Article 800, and applicable local codes. De-energize all circuits before making terminations. Avoid routing this cable in the same conduit or pathway as high-voltage conductors without appropriate separation as required by code. Do not exceed the cable's minimum bend radius during pulls to prevent conductor deformation.
