West Penn Wire D252402GY0500 Shielded Data Cable

Product Description

The WEST PENN WIRE D252402GY0500 is a 24 AWG, 2-pair stranded composite shielded data cable supplied in a 500-foot gray jacket. Designed for low-voltage data and security signal transmission, the cable uses a stranded conductor construction for improved flexibility during routing and termination. The composite shielding layer reduces electromagnetic interference, making it well suited for installations where signal integrity is a priority. Licensed low-voltage technicians and security system installers are the primary trade professionals who work with this cable on structured wiring and access control projects.

This cable is used in residential and light commercial security, access control, and data distribution applications. It is appropriate for runs inside walls, conduit, and cable trays where a shielded twisted-pair solution is required to maintain clean signal transmission over longer distances. The 500-foot put-up length suits mid-to-large installation projects that require continuous runs with minimal splicing.

Key Features

• 24 AWG stranded conductors for flexibility and ease of termination
• 2-pair configuration supports common low-voltage security and data circuit layouts
• Composite shielding reduces electromagnetic and radio-frequency interference
• Gray outer jacket for standard identification in low-voltage wiring systems
• 500-foot continuous length minimizes splices on longer cable runs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-fit cable for low-voltage security, access control, and structured data wiring systems requiring a 24 AWG 2-pair shielded cable.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage technician in accordance with applicable NEC Article 725 requirements for Class 2 and Class 3 wiring. De-energize all circuits at the panel before making terminations. Avoid sharp bend radii that can compromise the shield continuity or conductor integrity. Verify that shield drain wires are properly grounded at one end to prevent ground loops.
