Belden 1516C is a high-capacity, 24-pair (48 conductors) analog audio snake cable designed for large-scale, professional audio distribution. It utilizes 24 AWG stranded tinned copper conductors and individually shielded pairs to provide exceptional signal integrity, making it an ideal choice for complex studio, broadcast, and live-sound routing applications.

Product Description

Engineered to handle high-density signal requirements, the Belden 1516C consolidates 24 distinct audio pairs into a single, manageable cable assembly. Each pair is individually wrapped in Beldfoil® aluminum/polyester shielding with 100% coverage, which is critical for eliminating crosstalk between channels and preventing electromagnetic interference (EMI) in busy technical environments. The cable features a rugged, flame-retardant PVC outer jacket, ensuring durability during pulling and installation through conduits, cable trays, or patch bays. This snake cable offers a professional, organized solution for facilities that need to route numerous microphone or line-level signals reliably while maintaining the lowest possible noise floor.
