Genesis Cable 32211109 16/2 Stranded Shielded Plenum Cable

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 32211109 is a 16 AWG 2-conductor stranded shielded plenum-rated security cable supplied in a 1000-foot pull box in grey jacket. This cable is engineered for low-voltage signal and security system wiring in plenum air-handling spaces where building codes require CMP-rated materials. The stranded conductors allow flexibility during routing and termination, and the overall shield provides noise rejection critical in security and alarm signal runs. Licensed security and low-voltage electricians are the primary installers of this product in commercial and institutional buildings.

This cable is suited for installation in plenum ceilings, raised access floors, and other air-handling spaces in commercial, institutional, and multi-tenant residential construction. Typical applications include intrusion detection wiring, access control panel runs, fire alarm auxiliary circuits, and other low-voltage security system home runs where a CMP plenum rating is required by code. The grey jacket is a common color call-out on security system installation drawings.

Key Features

• 16 AWG stranded conductors for flexibility during pull and termination
• 2-conductor configuration for standard signal and return runs
• Overall shield for noise and interference rejection on low-voltage signal circuits
• CMP plenum jacket rating meets code requirements for air-handling space installations
• 1000-foot pull box minimizes handling and speeds large runs
• Grey jacket for easy identification and coordination with security system drawings

Compatibility

Designed as a plenum-rated stranded shielded security cable for use with low-voltage intrusion detection, access control, and alarm systems requiring CMP-rated wiring in air-handling spaces.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage or electrical contractor in accordance with NFPA 72, NEC Article 800, and local building codes. De-energize all connected panels and control equipment before making terminations. Maintain minimum bend radius during pulls to avoid deforming the shield or stressing conductors. Plenum-rated cable must be installed only in spaces specifically designated as plenum by the authority having jurisdiction.
