Genesis Cable 21025501 22/2 Stranded Riser Cable 500 Ft

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 21025501 is a 22 AWG 2-conductor stranded riser-rated security cable packaged in a 500-foot pull box. This unshielded cable is designed for low-voltage security and alarm system wiring in riser applications, meaning it runs vertically between floors inside a building. The stranded conductor construction provides flexibility during installation, making it easier to route through conduit or building cavities. Licensed security installers and low-voltage electricians use this cable for connecting control panels, sensors, keypads, motion detectors, and similar devices in commercial and residential security systems.

This cable is suited for indoor riser installations where a CL2R or equivalent riser-rated jacket is required to meet fire code requirements for vertical cable runs. Typical applications include connecting door and window contacts, glass break sensors, PIR motion detectors, and alarm panel accessories. The white jacket blends with standard interior finishes and simplifies identification in security wiring installations. The 500-foot box format supports larger job pulls without mid-run splices.

Key Features

• 22 AWG stranded conductors for flexibility during pull and termination
• 2-conductor configuration for standard low-voltage security device wiring
• Riser-rated jacket suitable for vertical runs between building floors
• Unshielded construction keeps cost low for non-noise-sensitive runs
• 500-foot box format reduces mid-run splices on larger installations
• White jacket finish suits standard interior environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use cable for residential and light commercial low-voltage security and alarm system wiring where a 22 AWG 2-conductor stranded riser cable is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage technician or electrician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements for riser-rated cables. De-energize the control panel and any connected devices before terminating conductors. Avoid sharp bends or kinking the cable during pulls, as stranded conductors can be damaged by excessive stress. Verify local building and fire codes for riser cable requirements before beginning vertical runs.
