Paige Electric 1U18022B1 18/2c Stranded CM Cable
Overview
The Paige Electric 1U18022B1 is a 1000-foot spool of 18-gauge, 2-conductor stranded copper cable. It features a white PVC jacket rated for CM (Communications Multipurpose) installations, making it suitable for in-wall and riser applications within commercial buildings. This cable is designed for reliable transmission of low-voltage signals in security systems, fire alarms, and audio/visual distribution networks where plenum-rated cable is not required.
Compatibility
This cable is compatible with a wide range of low-voltage security devices including analog and IP cameras requiring power and data transmission over a single cable run (when used with appropriate baluns or power injectors), access control readers, door strike power, fire alarm initiating devices, and general low-voltage audio/visual equipment. It is designed for use with standard low-voltage connectors and termination tools.
Installation Notes
The CM rating indicates suitability for use in non-plenum spaces, such as general building ductwork or between floors. Avoid installing in areas requiring plenum-rated cable (e.g., above suspended ceilings used for air return). The stranded copper conductors offer better flexibility than solid copper, simplifying installation in tight conduits or complex pathways. Ensure proper termination to maintain signal integrity and prevent shorts.
