Genesis Cable 52525501 14AWG 2C Cmr Audio Cable 500ft White

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 52525501 is a 14 AWG 2-conductor stranded CMR-rated audio cable supplied in a 500-foot length with a white jacket. CMR (Communications Multipurpose Cable, Riser) rating qualifies this cable for in-wall and riser installations where plenum-rated cable is not required by code. The stranded conductor construction provides flexibility for routing through walls, conduit, and junction boxes. This cable is intended for low-voltage audio distribution in residential and light commercial environments and is installed by licensed low-voltage technicians and electricians.

This cable is suited for in-wall speaker wiring, distributed audio systems, and background music installations in residential and commercial buildings. The 500-foot reel supports large-scale room-by-room audio distribution without mid-run splices. The white jacket blends with standard interior wall finishes and simplifies routing in finished spaces. Installers working under NEC Article 800 and related low-voltage wiring requirements will find this cable compliant for riser applications.

Key Features

• 14 AWG stranded conductors for flexibility during installation and pull-through applications
• 2-conductor configuration for standard single-channel speaker runs
• CMR riser rating meets NEC requirements for in-wall, floor-to-floor riser installations
• 500-foot continuous length reduces splices in large distributed audio projects
• White jacket finish compatible with standard interior wall environments

Compatibility

Designed as an in-wall riser-rated speaker cable suitable for residential and light commercial distributed audio systems requiring 14 AWG 2-conductor non-plenum wiring.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage technician or electrician in accordance with NEC Article 800 and applicable local codes. Verify that riser-rated CMR cable is acceptable for the intended pathway — use CMP-rated plenum cable in air-handling spaces where required by code. De-energize any connected amplifiers or audio equipment before terminating conductors. Avoid sharp bends or stapling directly through the jacket, which can damage conductor insulation and degrade signal quality.
