Genesis Cable 31141112 18/2 CL2P Security Cable 1000 Ft Beige

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 31141112 is an 18 AWG, 2-conductor stranded, jacketed security cable rated CL2P for plenum-rated installations. Designed for low-voltage security and alarm wiring, this cable meets the NEC Class 2 plenum (CL2P) rating, making it suitable for air-handling spaces where flame spread and smoke density requirements are more stringent. It ships in a 1,000-foot pull box in a beige jacket finish. Licensed security installers and low-voltage technicians are the primary trade professionals who work with this cable in commercial and residential security system applications.

This cable is used in security alarm systems, access control runs, and similar low-voltage signal wiring where a plenum-rated jacket is required by code. The CL2P rating allows routing through air plenums and drop ceilings in commercial buildings without the need for conduit in many jurisdictions. The stranded conductor construction provides flexibility during installation, particularly in runs that require bending around obstacles or pulling through tight pathways. The beige jacket color is a common standard for security wiring and blends with typical commercial ceiling and wall finishes.

Key Features

• 18 AWG, 2-conductor stranded construction for flexibility during pulls
• CL2P plenum rating meets NEC requirements for air-handling space installations
• 1,000-foot pull box format reduces handling time on larger jobs
• Beige jacket finish standard for security and alarm wiring applications
• Unshielded design suited for low-voltage signal runs in security systems

Compatibility

Designed as a plenum-rated, low-voltage security cable suitable for use in NEC Class 2 wiring applications including alarm panels, motion detectors, door and window contacts, and access control devices requiring 18/2 conductor runs.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage or security systems technician in accordance with NEC Article 725 and applicable local codes. Verify that CL2P plenum rating is required for the specific air-handling space before substituting a standard or riser-rated cable. De-energize connected equipment and panels before terminating conductors. Avoid sharp bends or kinks in the cable during pulls to preserve conductor and jacket integrity.
