Genesis Cable 32025512 22/2 Stranded Shielded Plenum Security Cable

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 32025512 is a 22 AWG, 2-conductor stranded shielded security cable rated CL2P for plenum-space installation. It is designed for low-voltage security, alarm, and access control wiring in commercial and residential buildings where cables must run through air-handling spaces. The stranded conductors provide flexibility during pull-through, while the overall shield reduces electromagnetic interference on signal circuits. The CL2P rating satisfies code requirements for plenum-rated installations without the need for conduit in those spaces. The beige jacket blends with standard ceiling and wall finishes. This cable is installed by licensed alarm technicians, low-voltage contractors, and security system integrators.

This cable is suited for fire alarm notification circuits, intrusion detection wiring, access control panel runs, and intercom or call-system connections that pass through plenum air-handling spaces. It is appropriate for both new construction and retrofit projects in office buildings, schools, hospitals, and multi-family residential structures where code mandates plenum-rated cable in HVAC air-return pathways. The 500-foot box format supports longer continuous runs typical of commercial security installations.

Key Features

• 22 AWG stranded conductors for flexibility during routing and termination
• Overall shield reduces EMI and RFI interference on low-voltage signal circuits
• CL2P plenum rating meets NEC requirements for cables installed in air-handling spaces
• Beige jacket finish suits standard commercial ceiling and wall environments
• 500-foot box quantity supports extended commercial runs with minimal splices
• 2-conductor configuration for standard security and alarm circuit wiring

Compatibility

Designed as a standard CL2P-rated 22 AWG 2-conductor stranded shielded cable suitable for low-voltage security, alarm, and access control system wiring in plenum air-handling spaces per NEC Article 800 and related code sections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage or alarm contractor in accordance with NFPA 72, NEC Article 760, and applicable local codes. De-energize all connected panels and control equipment before making terminations. Do not exceed the cable's minimum bend radius during routing, and avoid bundling with high-voltage conductors that could induce interference. Verify that all plenum-space pathways are confirmed air-handling zones before substituting a non-plenum cable type.
