BELDEN 1502R, 20 AWG 2-CORE SHIELDED RISER CABLE

BELDEN 1502R, 20 AWG 2-CONDUCTOR SHIELDED RISER CABLE is a highly durable, cost-effective cabling solution designed for vertical runs between floors in commercial and residential buildings. It is widely recognized as the industry standard for security, access control, and low-voltage control systems requiring high signal integrity in non-plenum riser spaces.

Product Description

Engineered for reliable, long-term performance, the 1502R features two 20 AWG stranded bare copper conductors. This 20 AWG gauge provides a significant advantage over 22 AWG alternatives by reducing resistance and voltage drop, making it an excellent choice for longer cable runs or devices that demand slightly more power, such as card readers or security sensors.

The cable is Riser (CMR) rated, meaning it is constructed with materials that meet specific fire-resistance standards for vertical floor-to-floor installations. This allows it to be safely routed through shafts, conduit, and wall cavities while minimizing the vertical spread of fire. To protect against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI)—which can cause signal degradation or false triggers in security hardware—the cable is shielded with a high-coverage Beldfoil® aluminum foil-polyester tape. This ensure that your control signals remain stable and error-free, even in busy commercial electrical environments.
