Genesis Cable 21045806 22/4 Stranded Riser Security Cable 500ft

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 21045806 is a 22 AWG 4-conductor stranded, unshielded riser-rated security cable supplied on a 500-foot spool in blue jacket. Riser (CMR) rating qualifies this cable for vertical runs between floors in commercial and residential buildings, meeting fire-propagation requirements set by the National Electrical Code. The stranded conductor construction provides flexibility during pull-through installations in conduit or open plenum-adjacent spaces. Security integrators and low-voltage electricians use this cable for alarm panels, access control wiring, and sensor loops where a reliable, code-compliant 4-conductor run is required.

This cable is suited for low-voltage security and fire-alarm signal applications in both residential and light commercial settings. Typical installations include connecting door and window contacts, motion detectors, glassbreak sensors, and keypad wiring back to a central alarm control panel. The blue jacket aids in cable identification when multiple cable types are run in the same pathway. It is sold as a single 500-foot spool, making it practical for medium to large security system installations.

Key Features

• 22 AWG stranded conductors for flexibility in tight routing and conduit pulls
• 4-conductor configuration supports multi-wire sensor and control wiring in a single cable run
• Riser (CMR) rated for vertical in-wall and between-floor installation per NEC requirements
• Unshielded design simplifies termination in standard low-voltage security applications
• Blue jacket for easy cable identification in mixed-cable environments
• 500-foot spool quantity suitable for medium to large installations

Compatibility

Designed as a standard riser-rated low-voltage security cable for use with alarm panels, access control systems, and sensor devices requiring 22 AWG 4-conductor wiring.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage technician or electrician familiar with NEC Article 725 and applicable local codes governing signaling and security cable. De-energize the alarm panel and any connected devices before making terminations. Observe minimum bend radius for stranded cable to avoid conductor damage during pulls. Do not use this cable in plenum-rated air-handling spaces; a CMP-rated cable is required for those applications.
