Genesis Cable 21025806 22/2 Stranded Riser Security Cable 500ft

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 21025806 is a 22 AWG 2-conductor stranded riser-rated security cable designed for low-voltage alarm and access control wiring in commercial and residential installations. Rated for riser (CMR) applications, this cable meets vertical run requirements between floors without the need for conduit in many code-compliant scenarios. The stranded conductor construction provides flexibility during pull-through and termination work. The blue jacket aids in circuit identification on multi-cable installations. This cable is sold as a 500-foot spool, giving installers enough run length for mid-size projects in a single pull.

This cable is well suited for fire alarm auxiliary circuits, intrusion detection wiring, access control panel runs, and low-voltage sensor connections in multi-story buildings. Riser-rated cable is required by code in vertical shaft and floor-to-floor runs where flame spread must be controlled. Electricians and low-voltage security technicians install this cable in commercial offices, schools, and residential multi-family buildings where CMR-rated wiring is specified.

Key Features

• 22 AWG stranded conductors for flexibility and ease of termination
• 2-conductor configuration suits standard alarm and sensor circuits
• Riser (CMR) rating meets NEC requirements for vertical cable runs
• Blue jacket for quick visual circuit identification
• 500-foot spool reduces splicing on longer runs
• Unshielded construction keeps installation simple where shielding is not required

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and general-use cable for low-voltage security, alarm, and access control systems requiring 22 AWG 2-conductor riser-rated wiring.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage or electrical contractor in accordance with NEC Article 760 and local code requirements for riser-rated cable. De-energize all panels and control equipment before making terminations. Avoid sharp bends that exceed the cable minimum bend radius, and do not over-cinch cable ties, which can deform stranded conductors and increase resistance. Riser-rated cable must not be substituted for plenum-rated cable in air-handling spaces.
