Genesis Cable 41561008 18/2 Outdoor Fire Alarm Cable 1000 Ft

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 41561008 is an 18 AWG 2-conductor stranded outdoor fire alarm cable rated for unshielded fire alarm signaling applications. Supplied on a 1,000-foot reel in black jacket, this cable is built for outdoor installation environments where exposure to moisture, UV, and temperature variation is a factor. The stranded conductor construction provides flexibility during routing and termination, making it a practical choice for installers working in conduit or direct-burial-rated raceways. Licensed fire alarm technicians and low-voltage electricians are the primary installers of this product type.

This cable is suited for outdoor fire alarm circuits in commercial and light industrial installations where an unshielded 2-conductor run is required between initiating devices, notification appliances, or control equipment. The black jacket aids in identifying outdoor-rated runs within a system. The 1,000-foot continuous reel minimizes splice points on longer runs, which is an advantage in large-perimeter or campus-style installations.

Key Features

• 18 AWG stranded conductors for flexibility during installation and termination
• 2-conductor configuration for standard fire alarm signaling circuits
• Outdoor-rated jacket suitable for exposure to moisture and UV conditions
• Unshielded construction for fire alarm applications that do not require shielding
• 1,000-foot reel reduces splice points on extended runs
• Black jacket for easy identification of outdoor-rated cable segments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard installation cable for unshielded outdoor fire alarm signaling circuits requiring 18 AWG 2-conductor stranded construction.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed fire alarm technician or low-voltage electrician in accordance with NFPA 72 and applicable local codes. De-energize and lock out the fire alarm control panel before making any connections. Verify that conduit fill, bend radius, and outdoor raceway requirements are met per the authority having jurisdiction. Do not exceed the cable voltage and current ratings for the circuit type being served.
