Genesis Cable 52535002 14AWG 4-conductor Cmr Audio Cable 500ft

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 52535002 is a 14 AWG, 4-conductor stranded CMR-rated riser audio cable supplied in a 500-foot length with a yellow jacket. CMR (Communications Multipurpose Cable, Riser) rating makes this cable suitable for vertical runs between floors in commercial and residential buildings where plenum-rated cable is not required. The stranded conductor construction provides flexibility during installation and routing through conduit or cable trays. Licensed electricians and low-voltage contractors are the primary installers of this cable type.

This cable is used in distributed audio systems, background music installations, and in-wall speaker wiring applications. The 14 AWG conductor gauge supports longer runs with reduced voltage drop, making it a practical choice for whole-building audio distribution in both residential and light commercial settings. The yellow jacket aids in visual identification during rough-in and trim-out phases of installation.

Key Features

• 14 AWG stranded conductors for flexibility and low resistance over longer runs
• 4-conductor configuration supports stereo speaker pairs in a single cable pull
• CMR riser rating meets NEC requirements for in-wall vertical runs between floors
• Yellow jacket provides easy visual identification in multi-cable installations
• 500-foot spool reduces the need for mid-run splices on large jobs

Compatibility

Designed as a standard CMR-rated 14 AWG 4-conductor stranded audio cable for use in non-plenum in-wall and riser audio distribution installations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage contractor or electrician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements for CMR-rated cable. This cable is not rated for plenum air-handling spaces and must not be used as a substitute for CMP-rated cable in those environments. De-energize all connected audio equipment before terminating conductors. Avoid sharp bends and pinch points during pulls to preserve conductor integrity and jacket rating.
