Plenum-Rated Construction

The 872002P10C is designed for installations requiring CMP plenum-rated communication cable.

Plenum cable is commonly required when low-voltage wiring passes through environmental air-handling spaces such as:

• Above suspended ceilings used as return-air spaces

• HVAC plenums

• Air-handling cavities

• Commercial return-air spaces

Always verify applicable electrical, fire, and building-code requirements before installation.

20 AWG Solid Conductors

The cable uses 20 AWG solid conductors, providing a balance between conductor size and installation flexibility for compatible Aiphone systems.

Proper wire gauge is important for maintaining:

• Communication quality

• System voltage

• Audio performance

• Video performance

• Maximum allowable wiring distance

Mid-Capacitance Construction

Aiphone classifies the 872002P10C as a mid-capacitance cable.

Specified capacitance is approximately:

18.0 pF/ft

Using the cable type specified by Aiphone helps ensure reliable system operation over the manufacturer's published wiring distances.

Aiphone-Approved Cable

Aiphone systems may depend on specific cable characteristics including:

• Wire gauge

• Number of conductors

• Solid versus stranded construction

• Shielding

• Capacitance

• Resistance

• Plenum rating

• Maximum wiring distance

Using Aiphone-approved cable helps maintain proper system performance and simplifies future troubleshooting.

Important Installation Note

The 872002P10C is non-shielded plenum cable.

Do not substitute it where the system specifically requires:

• Shielded cable

• CAT-5e or CAT-6

• Direct-burial cable

• Different wire gauge

• Different conductor count

Always follow the installation instructions for the exact Aiphone system.
