𝐏𝐀𝐒𝐒𝐄𝐒 𝐈𝐍𝐒𝐏𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐘𝐖𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐄 CMP/CL2P is the highest fire rating in the building — it covers riser and in-wall too, so one cable satisfies every space, not just the plenum.
-
𝐊𝐍𝐎𝐖 𝐖𝐇𝐄𝐍 𝐓𝐎 𝐆𝐎 𝐒𝐇𝐈𝐄𝐋𝐃𝐄𝐃 Near electrical panels, motors, or fluorescent ballasts, step up to shielded instead — this page tells you honestly when unshielded isn't enough.
-
𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐂𝐇𝐄𝐒 𝐅𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐑 𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐍 𝟏𝟖𝐀𝐖𝐆 Lower resistance than 18AWG means less voltage drop on long runs to door strikes, amplifiers, and access control gear — no mid-run booster needed.
-
𝐑𝐈𝐏𝐂𝐎𝐑𝐃 𝐒𝐏𝐄𝐄𝐃𝐒 𝐔𝐏 𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐌𝐈𝐍𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 Built-in ripcord strips the jacket cleanly at every termination point — less time with a blade, more time finishing the job.

Description
Description
Keep your control wiring code-compliant and fire-safe with this 16AWG unshielded stranded bare copper control cable. Rated CMP and CL2P, approved for air-handling spaces above suspended ceilings, below raised floors, and in risers and walls — the highest indoor fire safety rating, covering every indoor environment with one spec.
16AWG provides more current capacity and lower voltage drop over long runs than 18AWG — the right choice for powered security devices, audio amplifiers, door strikes, and access control equipment. For installations near electrical panels, motors, or fluorescent lighting with significant EMI, choose the shielded version instead.
