Wirepath SP-164-DB-500-BLK Shielded Security Wire 500 Ft

Product Description

The WIREPATH SP-164-DB-500-BLK is a stranded shielded security wire supplied on a 500-foot drum in black. Stranded conductors provide flexibility during pull and termination, while the overall shield reduces interference from nearby electrical sources. This wire is designed for use in low-voltage security and alarm installations where signal integrity matters. Licensed security integrators and low-voltage technicians are the primary installers. The drum format makes it practical for larger jobs where direct-burial or in-wall runs require a reliable continuous length without mid-run splices.

This wire is suited for residential and light commercial security system installations, including intrusion detection, access control wiring runs, and alarm panel connections. The black jacket blends into finished spaces and conduit applications. The 500-foot drum length supports multi-zone layouts in larger structures without requiring additional reels. Where shielded cable is specified by the system designer or required by the panel manufacturer, this product meets that requirement in a single-unit purchase.

Key Features

• Stranded conductors for flexibility during installation and termination
• Overall shield reduces electromagnetic interference on signal runs
• 500-foot drum minimizes mid-run splices on larger installations
• Black jacket suitable for in-wall, conduit, and concealed routing
• Category: Security Stranded Shielded — appropriate for alarm and access control applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard supply wire for low-voltage security and alarm systems requiring stranded shielded cable.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage technician or security system integrator in accordance with applicable local codes and NFPA 72 where applicable. Power down or disarm the security panel before making any terminations. Avoid running this cable parallel to high-voltage conductors for extended distances, as this can degrade signal quality even with shielding. Maintain the shield drain wire continuity and terminate it at one end only to prevent ground loops.
