Genesis Cable 31961002 Access Wire Composite Cable

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 31961002 is a composite access wire combining an 18 AWG 4-conductor run with 22 AWG multi-pair conductors (2-pair, 4-pair, and 6-pair) in a single shielded cable assembly. Designed for low-voltage access control and security system installations, this cable bundles multiple signal and power runs into one jacket, reducing conduit fill and simplifying rough-in work. It is sold as a single unit (EA) and is intended for installation by licensed low-voltage technicians and security system integrators working on commercial or residential access control projects.

This composite cable is suited for access control panels, card readers, door strikes, and related low-voltage devices that require both power conductors and multiple signal pairs in the same cable run. The multi-pair 22 AWG sections handle data and signal transmission while the 18 AWG 4-conductor section carries power to electric locks or actuators. It is a practical choice for single-cable pulls in new construction or retrofit access control installations.

Key Features

• Composite design combines 18 AWG 4-conductor and 22 AWG 2-pair, 4-pair, and 6-pair conductors in one cable
• Single overall shield (1s) reduces interference on signal pairs
• Sold individually (EA) for flexible quantity purchasing
• Consolidates multiple cable runs into a single pull, saving labor and conduit space
• Suited for low-voltage access control, security, and building automation wiring

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style access wire for low-voltage access control and security system installations requiring composite multi-conductor and multi-pair cabling.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage or electrical contractor in accordance with NEC Article 725 requirements for Class 2 and Class 3 remote-control and signaling circuits. De-energize all connected panels and equipment before terminating conductors. Maintain minimum bend radius and avoid sharp edges or staples that can damage the overall shield or jacket. Verify local code requirements for plenum or riser ratings before installing in air-handling spaces or vertical shafts.
