Genesis Cable 32161012 18/6 Stranded CL2P Plenum Security Cable

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 32161012 is an 18 AWG, 6-conductor stranded shielded plenum-rated security cable supplied on a 1000-foot roll in beige. It carries a CL2P rating, making it code-compliant for installation in air-handling plenum spaces where standard CL2 or non-plenum cable is not permitted. The stranded conductor construction provides flexibility during pull-through and termination. This cable is designed for low-voltage security and alarm systems in commercial and residential applications. Licensed low-voltage technicians and security system installers are the primary trade installing this product.

This cable is well suited for fire alarm initiating circuits, access control wiring, intrusion detection systems, and other low-voltage security applications that require plenum-rated conductors. The beige jacket blends with standard ceiling and wall aesthetics, and the shielded construction helps reduce electromagnetic interference in environments with multiple cable runs or nearby electrical sources. The 1000-foot roll length supports larger commercial jobs without mid-run splices.

Key Features

• 18 AWG stranded conductors for flexibility during installation
• 6-conductor configuration supports multi-zone or multi-function wiring runs
• CL2P plenum rating meets NEC requirements for air-handling space installations
• Overall shield reduces EMI and signal interference
• 1000-foot roll minimizes splices on longer runs
• Beige jacket finish suits standard commercial and residential interiors

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation cable for low-voltage security, alarm, and access control systems requiring CL2P plenum-rated 18 AWG 6-conductor shielded cable.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage or security technician in accordance with NEC Article 725 and all applicable local codes. De-energize all connected equipment before making terminations. In plenum spaces, verify that no non-plenum-rated cable is substituted, as mixing ratings may violate code compliance. Use appropriate pulling tension limits for stranded cable to avoid conductor damage during conduit or j-hook runs.
