Southwire 32091012 22/12 Plenum Shielded Cable 1000 Ft

Product Description

The SOUTHWIRE 32091012 is a 22 AWG 12-conductor plenum-rated shielded multiconductor cable supplied on a 1000-foot reel. It is built for low-voltage signal and control wiring in commercial and institutional buildings where air-handling spaces require CMP-rated cable. Bare copper conductors deliver reliable conductivity and minimize voltage drop across long runs. A foil shield over all conductors provides protection against electromagnetic interference. The plenum PVC jacket meets CMP listing requirements for installation in air-return plenums and other environmental air spaces.

This cable is suited for fire alarm, access control, security, audio-visual, and building automation wiring in plenum spaces. Its 1000-foot reel format is practical for new construction and large retrofit projects where continuous runs are common. The white jacket aids identification in multi-cable installations. Low-smoke PVC insulation reduces toxic output in the event of a fire, which is a primary requirement for plenum-rated wiring systems in commercial environments.

Key Features

• 22 AWG bare copper conductors for strong conductivity and low voltage drop
• Foil shield over all conductors for EMI protection on signal runs
• CMP plenum-rated PVC jacket approved for installation in air-handling spaces
• Low-smoke PVC insulation reduces combustion output
• Durable rip cord for fast, clean jacket stripping and removal
• Countdown length markings printed on jacket for tracking remaining cable

Compatibility

Designed as a CMP-rated plenum multiconductor cable suitable for low-voltage control, signal, and security system wiring applications in commercial and institutional plenum air spaces.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or low-voltage systems technician in accordance with the NEC and applicable local codes. Verify that the installation environment requires CMP-rated cable before routing in plenum spaces. Power down all connected equipment and control panels before terminating conductors. Avoid sharp bends and do not exceed the minimum bend radius, which can damage the foil shield and degrade signal performance.
