Would one of you fine people be able to provide me a belden model # for 22/4 wire to use for security? I'm a newbie HO providing a few thousand feet of the wire for the installer for door & window contacts as well as PIR's, glass breaks, flood sensors, occupancy sensors and the like but can't figure out which belden cable I should use.
5541UE?
6502UE?
5522UE?
5502UE?
5502UG?
8444?
The prices seem to vary wildly (especially for 8444) but they are all 22/4 so I'm not sure why the big differences unless some is plenum or fire rated or something? I tried searching the forums but didn't find specific model numbers.
If there is a longer length of run, say over 100', would it be better to use one model over another that would be better/cheaper for shorter runs?
Stranded or solid?
Any light you can shed on the subject will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Rob
