Paige Electric 2U18042B5 18/4 Stranded Composite Cable
Overview
The Paige Electric 2U18042B5 is a 500-foot spool of 18-gauge, 4-conductor stranded composite cable. Designed for plenum spaces, its CMP (Plenum) and FPLP (Plenum Rated Fire Alarm Cable) ratings ensure compliance with building codes for use in air handling spaces. This cable is suitable for low-voltage applications such as security system wiring, fire alarm systems, and general low-voltage communication runs where plenum-rated cable is mandated.
Compatibility
This cable is designed for use with low-voltage systems requiring 18-gauge, 4-conductor wiring. It is compatible with most security cameras, access control systems, fire alarm panels, and other low-voltage devices that utilize 4-conductor connections and require plenum-rated cable. Specific compatibility depends on the device's voltage, current, and signal requirements, but the stranded conductors offer flexibility for various termination methods.
Installation Notes
The cable is supplied on a 500-foot spool, facilitating efficient deployment in commercial installations. Its stranded construction provides superior flexibility compared to solid conductors, making it easier to pull through conduit and terminate. The CMP/FPLP rating means it can be installed in air-handling plenums without requiring conduit, simplifying installation and reducing material costs in compliant environments. Ensure proper termination techniques are used to maintain signal integrity.
