Black 16 AWG 4-conductor stranded copper cable on 500 ft reel

Genesis

Genesis 16 AWG 4C STR Audacious Outdoor Black 500 ft Reel handheld pcs accessory

SKU CH-8390-ACAT9

16 AWG four-conductor oxygen-free copper cable rated for direct burial and sunlight resistance on a 500 ft reel

  • 16 AWG stranded copper handles outdoor power runs
  • Four conductors simplify multi-circuit installations
  • Direct-burial rating allows underground use without conduit
  • Sunlight-resistant jacket withstands long-term UV exposure
  • 500-foot reel reduces splice points on large jobs

16 AWG 4-Conductor Outdoor Cable

This Genesis 16 AWG four-conductor stranded cable uses oxygen-free copper for reliable signal transmission. It is rated CL3 and CM with direct-burial and sunlight-resistant approvals. The black jacket suits permanent outdoor installations. Supplied on a 500 ft reel for continuous pulls.

Installers running low-voltage lines outdoors

Suits technicians who need a single reel for direct-burial speaker, security or control wiring. Not intended for mains-voltage power distribution or indoor plenum spaces requiring CMP rating. Buyers needing shielded pairs or a higher conductor count should look at a different cable type.

Fits standard low-voltage trenches and conduit

The CL3 and CM ratings allow burial without additional conduit where local code permits. Oxygen-free copper conductors reduce resistance over long runs. The 500 ft length minimises splices on extended perimeter layouts. No special tools beyond standard low-voltage termination gear are required.

Questions about this item

Does this 16 AWG 4C stranded cable require a specific connector type to terminate the oxygen-free copper conductors?

The four stranded oxygen-free copper conductors accept standard low-voltage connectors rated for 16 AWG wire; crimp or screw terminals matching the gauge will work.

Can the CL3-rated jacket on this reel be pulled through conduit that already contains older CM-rated speaker wire?

Yes, the sunlight-resistant CL3 jacket is approved for in-wall and direct-burial use alongside existing CM cables in the same raceway.

After burying the 500 ft reel, how do I verify the direct-burial rating is performing as intended?

Inspect the black jacket for cuts, then measure continuity and resistance across all four conductors; readings should be consistent with 16 AWG stranded copper over the full length.
