Overview

Discover the Cables Direct Online 500ft Stranded 18/2 Alarm CCA Cable, designed for flexible, reliable low-voltage wiring across security, lighting, and alert networks. By using copper-clad aluminum (CCA), this cable aims to balance performance with cost, making longer runs more feasible for a variety of setups.

Why this 18 AWG low-voltage cable stands out

  • Cost-Effective materials: Copper-clad aluminum core helps manage project costs while delivering two-conductor flexibility.
  • Lightweight and easy to install: A lighter feel aids handling and pull-through work in tight spaces and across ceilings or conduits.
  • Reliable conductivity: The 18 AWG two-conductor design supports steady signaling with reduced electrical noise for low-voltage devices.
  • Durability: The core is designed to resist corrosion, supporting longer service life in varied environments.
  • Versatile applications: Well-suited for alarm systems, intercoms, LED runs, door bells, and security stations.

In real-world use, technicians often appreciate the balance between flexibility and strength when routing the cable along walls, through attics, or inside conduit. The 500-foot length provides reach for larger installations, while the stranded construction helps you navigate bends without kinking.

How to plan your wiring

  • Two conductors, 18 AWG: supports common low-voltage devices with a single pair for power and signal paths.
  • Environment and routing: While built for durability, consider your routing path to maximize ease of installation and performance.

Tip: Pair this cable with compatible low-voltage accessories to streamline your wiring plan. This description emphasizes possibilities and is not a performance guarantee.
