Genesis Cable 31951099 Access Control Cable 18AWG 22AWG

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 31951099 is a multi-conductor composite access control cable designed for professional security and access control installations. This cable combines 18 AWG 4-conductor and 22 AWG multi-conductor runs in a single shielded jacket, allowing technicians to pull power and signal wiring in one pass. The foil shield with drain wire provides protection against electromagnetic interference, which is critical in commercial environments with high noise floors. Sold as a 1000-foot spool, it is intended for installation by licensed low-voltage technicians and security integrators working on door access, card reader, and electrified hardware applications.

This composite cable is suited for commercial and light industrial access control deployments where a single cable must carry both power and data or signal conductors simultaneously. Typical applications include card readers, magnetic locks, electric strikes, REX devices, and door position switches. The combined conductor configuration eliminates the need to run separate power and signal cables to each access point, reducing labor and conduit fill. It is commonly pulled through conduit or plenum-rated pathways in office buildings, schools, and healthcare facilities.

Key Features

• Composite construction combines 18 AWG 4-conductor and 22 AWG multi-conductor in a single cable run
• Foil shield with drain wire reduces EMI and crosstalk on signal conductors
• 1000-foot spool quantity supports large-scale or multi-door access control projects
• Single-cable pull covers both power and signal needs at the door hardware location
• Professional-grade construction suited for commercial access control installations

Compatibility

Designed as a professional-grade composite access control cable compatible with standard low-voltage access control systems requiring combined 18 AWG power and 22 AWG signal conductors at the door device location.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage or alarm systems technician in accordance with applicable NEC Article 725 requirements for Class 2 and Class 3 remote-control and signaling circuits. De-energize all access control power supplies and lock out the panel before terminating conductors. Maintain minimum bend radius when routing through conduit to avoid damage to the foil shield. Verify local AHJ requirements for conduit fill and cable routing in plenum versus non-plenum spaces before pulling.
