West Penn Wire 25815IV1000 RG-59 Plenum Coaxial Cable

Product Description

The WEST PENN WIRE 25815IV1000 is an RG-59 coaxial cable built for plenum-rated installations requiring shielded signal transmission. Constructed with a 20 AWG solid bare copper center conductor and a 95 percent braid shield, this cable is engineered to meet the air-handling space requirements mandated by fire and building codes. The plenum jacket reduces smoke and flame propagation, making it suitable for runs through HVAC ducts and raised floor or ceiling plenum spaces. Electricians and low-voltage technicians install this cable for video, CCTV, and baseband signal distribution in commercial and institutional buildings.

This RG-59 plenum cable is used in commercial and institutional applications where signal cabling must pass through air-handling spaces. Typical installations include CCTV surveillance systems, composite video distribution, and security camera wiring in schools, hospitals, office buildings, and similar facilities. The 1000-foot put-up length is suited for larger projects where continuous runs minimize connection points and maintain signal integrity across the span.

Key Features

• 20 AWG solid bare copper center conductor for consistent signal transmission
• 95 percent braid shield coverage reduces interference and signal loss
• Plenum-rated jacket meets fire and smoke requirements for air-handling space installation
• RG-59 form factor compatible with standard coaxial connectors and termination tooling
• 1000-foot continuous spool minimizes mid-run splices on large commercial jobs

Compatibility

Designed as a plenum-rated RG-59 coaxial cable for use with standard 75-ohm coaxial termination hardware in shielded low-voltage signal distribution systems.

Installation Notes

Installation in plenum air-handling spaces must comply with NEC Article 800 and local building codes governing plenum-rated communications cabling. De-energize all associated equipment before terminating or splicing. Use proper coaxial stripping and crimping tools to maintain shield integrity and center conductor geometry at each termination point. Do not exceed the cable minimum bend radius during routing, as kinking will degrade impedance and signal performance.
