West Penn Wire DA2402GY1000 Shielded Security Cable

Product Description

The WEST PENN WIRE DA2402GY1000 is a stranded, shielded security cable designed for AES and EBU audio and data transmission applications. This 1000-foot gray cable ships as a single unit and features a plenum-rated construction suitable for installation in air-handling spaces. With two twisted pairs and an overall common shield, it suppresses electromagnetic interference and maintains signal integrity across long runs. Security integrators, low-voltage technicians, and AV systems installers commonly specify this cable for structured wiring projects that require clean, stable signal paths.

This cable is suited for commercial and residential security, access control, and professional audio distribution systems that follow AES or EBU signal standards. The stranded conductor construction allows for flexible routing through conduit, cable trays, and tight pathways. The gray jacket provides easy visual identification in mixed-cable environments. It is appropriate for installations where plenum-rated wiring is required by local building and fire codes.

Key Features

• Two twisted pairs with common shield for effective EMI and RFI rejection
• Stranded conductors for flexible routing in conduit or open plenum runs
• AES and EBU compatible signal specification
• Plenum-rated jacket construction for use in air-handling spaces
• 1000-foot continuous gray jacket run — no mid-run splices

Compatibility

Designed for use in AES and EBU stranded shielded plenum security and audio distribution wiring applications. Consult local code requirements and system specifications to confirm suitability for a given installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage technician or qualified security systems integrator familiar with NEC Article 800 and applicable local codes. Maintain minimum bend radius when routing through conduit or cable trays to avoid damaging the shield or twisting out the pairs. Terminate the shield drain wire at one end only to prevent ground loops in sensitive audio or data signal runs. De-energize any connected equipment before making terminations.
