Genesis Cable 46021006 18/2 Fire Shielded Alarm Cable 1000 Ft

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 46021006 is an 18 AWG, 2-conductor fire shielded solid alarm cable supplied on a 1000-foot reel. Finished in blue jacketing for easy identification in low-voltage alarm and signaling runs, this cable is engineered for use in fire alarm, security, and life-safety signal circuits. The solid conductor construction supports reliable point-to-point connections in fixed-installation wiring. The overall shield provides protection against electromagnetic interference, keeping signal integrity intact in environments with competing electrical noise. Licensed fire alarm technicians and security system installers are the primary trades working with this product.

This cable is suited for residential and light commercial fire alarm systems, intrusion detection panels, and related low-voltage signaling applications where a shielded, solid-conductor cable is required by system design or local code. The 1000-foot reel length makes it practical for new construction rough-in work and larger retrofit projects where continuous cable runs are needed between devices and control panels.

Key Features

• 18 AWG solid conductors for stable, low-resistance signal paths in fixed alarm wiring
• 2-conductor configuration suitable for standard alarm and signaling circuit layouts
• Overall shield (OAS) reduces electromagnetic interference on sensitive fire and security signal lines
• Blue jacket aids circuit identification and color-coded installation planning
• 1000-foot reel quantity minimizes splices on long runs and supports bulk installation workflows

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-supply cable for low-voltage fire alarm and security signaling systems requiring 18 AWG 2-conductor shielded solid conductor wire.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed fire alarm or low-voltage technician in accordance with NFPA 72 and applicable local fire codes. De-energize the fire alarm control panel and associated circuits before making any connections. Follow the panel manufacturer's wiring diagrams for shield drain wire termination to avoid ground loops. Cable routing and support must comply with NEC Article 760 for fire alarm circuit wiring.
