    Compare wire vs. cable and choose the right option based on gauge, number of conductors, insulation, and current rating.

    Riser-Rated Communication and Security System Cable

    This cable is designated CL3R and CMR, so it has flame-resistant insulation and is approved for use in low-current circuits in vertical shafts and large facilities with multiple levels. It’s often used in intercoms, speakers, and security systems.
    Unshielded Stranded Wire

    Duct-Rated Communication and Security System Cable

    Also known as plenum cable, this cable is designated CL3P and CMP, so it has flame-resistant, low-smoke insulation and can be used without conduit in duct work and above a drop ceiling. Use it in low-current circuits such as intercoms, speakers, and security systems.
