Installation Notes

This 22/4 riser security alarm bulk cable is specifically designed for vertical installations between floors in non-plenum spaces, such as riser shafts, elevator shafts, and vertical cable runs in walls. The CMR/CL3R rating ensures the cable meets fire safety requirements for these applications.

CMR/CL3R Riser Rating: The dual CMR/CL3R rating indicates:

• CMR (Communications Riser): Suitable for vertical runs per NEC Article 800
• CL3R (Class 3 Riser): Suitable for power-limited circuits per NEC Article 725
• FT4 Fire Test: Enhanced fire safety performance
• Meets fire safety standards for riser applications
• NOT suitable for plenum spaces (use CMP-rated cable)
• Appropriate for vertical cable runs between floors

Unshielded Construction: The unshielded design makes this cable ideal for:

• Installations where electromagnetic interference is not a concern
• Cost-effective solution for basic alarm circuits
• Residential installations and low-interference commercial environments
• Applications where shielding is not required by specification
• Budget-conscious projects requiring reliable performance

Stranded Conductor Benefits: The 7-strand construction provides:

• Flexibility for routing around corners and through tight spaces
• Easier handling during installation
• Good balance between flexibility and performance
• Suitable for both short and long runs

22 AWG 4-Conductor Configuration: The 4-conductor design provides:

• Versatility for various security and communication applications
• Sufficient conductors for most CCTV camera installations
• Multiple circuit capability in a single cable
• Color-coded conductors for easy identification and termination

When to Choose 4-Conductor: Choose this 4-conductor cable when:

• CCTV cameras requiring power and video
• Basic security alarm zones with auxiliary circuits
• Intercom systems requiring multiple wires
