The Genesis 32211112 is a 16 AWG, 2-conductor stranded shielded plenum cable from Southwire’s Genesis® line. It carries CMP, CL3P, and FPLP plenum listings. As a result, this cable suits shielded security, audio, control, and power-limited fire alarm circuits in air-handling spaces. The cable ships in a 1000-foot REELEX pull box with a natural-white plenum PVC jacket.
Genesis 32211112 Specifications
The construction features 19-strand bare copper conductors with low-smoke PVC insulation. In addition, an aluminum foil/Mylar® shield with a 24 AWG tinned-copper drain wire covers all conductors. Furthermore, the cable is rated for 300 volts maximum. Insulation colors are black and red. Also, the heavier 16 AWG gauge supports longer device runs without excessive voltage drop.
Electrical Characteristics
Key electrical specs from the manufacturer datasheet:
- DC resistance: 4.19 Ω per 1000 ft at 20°C
- Capacitance: 65.9 pF per ft
- Lay length: 2.75″ (nominal)
- Shield: aluminum foil/Mylar® plus 24 AWG tinned-copper drain
Listings and Standards for Genesis 32211112
This 16/2 stranded shielded plenum cable carries the listings below:
- UL 444 — Communications Cables, Type CMP
- UL 13 — Power-Limited Circuit Cables, Type CL3P
- UL 1424 — Power-Limited Fire-Alarm Circuit Cables, Type FPLP
- NFPA 262 — Plenum flame and smoke test
- CSA C22.2 No. 2556 — FT6 plenum flame test
- RoHS compliant
Installation Notes
First, the plenum rating allows installation in air-handling spaces per NEC 300.22(C). Then, the foil shield with drain wire suppresses EMI on long signal pairs. However, ground the drain wire at only one end. As a result, installers avoid ground loops. Furthermore, natural-white jacketing helps installers distinguish this run from gray-jacketed circuits in the same plenum.
