Genesis Cable 21141101 18/2 Stranded Riser Security Cable

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 21141101 is an 18 AWG 2-conductor stranded riser-rated security cable supplied in a 1000-foot pull box. Designed for low-voltage security and alarm system wiring, this unshielded cable carries a riser (CMR) rating, making it suitable for vertical runs between floors in commercial and residential buildings. The stranded conductor construction improves flexibility during installation compared to solid conductor alternatives, reducing the risk of conductor fatigue in routing applications. The white jacket provides clean aesthetics in finished spaces and aids circuit identification on the bench.

This cable is used primarily in security alarm, access control, fire detection support wiring, and other low-voltage signal applications that require a riser-rated conductor. It is well suited for interior vertical cable runs in multi-story residential buildings, light commercial offices, and retail environments. Licensed low-voltage electricians and security system integrators are the primary installers. The 1000-foot box format is sized for full-system pulls on mid-size projects.

Key Features

• 18 AWG stranded conductors for flexibility during routing and termination
• 2-conductor configuration for standard security and alarm signal circuits
• Riser (CMR) rated for vertical installations between building floors
• Unshielded construction suited for general low-voltage signal runs
• White PVC jacket for clean appearance in finished interior spaces
• 1000-foot box format minimizes waste on full-system cable pulls

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard supply cable for low-voltage security alarm and access control system wiring requiring an 18 AWG 2-conductor riser-rated conductor.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage electrician or certified security system technician in accordance with applicable NEC Articles covering low-voltage wiring and riser cable requirements. De-energize all connected panel circuits before making terminations. Riser-rated cable must be used only in permitted riser applications as defined by the NEC; plenum-rated cable is required where air-handling spaces are present. Avoid sharp bend radii during routing to protect stranded conductor integrity.
