Heizka’s 14AWG Shielded Cable 2 Pair is an aluminum-foil-shielded security and control cable built around tinned copper conductors, bundled as two twisted pairs under one shield and jacket so two independent low-voltage control or signal circuits can be run in a single cable. The tinned copper conductors resist oxidation over time for stable long-term contact resistance, while the 100%-coverage aluminum foil shield with drain wire protects both signal paths from electromagnetic interference picked up along conduit and cable tray runs.
This makes it a dependable choice for access control panels, intercom systems, audio distribution, door controllers, proximity readers, keypads, and smoke detector wiring in commercial and residential buildings where two circuits need to share a single run and higher-current capacity matters. It ships with a durable gray PVC jacket printed with sequential length markings to reduce installation waste. Every reel is manufactured and tested to an ISO 9001:2008 quality system, is RoHS compliant, and is backed by Heizka’s multi-year warranty for long-term field performance.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Heizka 14AWG Shielded Cable 2 Pair used for?
The Heizka 14AWG Shielded Cable 2 Pair is designed for indoor security and control applications, including remote control of security systems, intercom systems, sound/audio systems, door controllers, proximity sensors, key pads, access control, and smoke detectors — wherever two circuits need to share a single cable run and higher current capacity matters.
Why is this cable shielded, and how should the shield be handled?
The 100%-coverage aluminum foil shield with drain wire protects both signal/control circuits from electromagnetic interference. The drain wire should be bonded and grounded at one consistent point — typically the panel end — to avoid ground loops while keeping the shield effective.
What’s the difference between the 14AWG, 16AWG, and 18AWG 2 Pair versions, and which should I choose?
All three share the same tinned-copper conductor, aluminum-foil-shielded, PVC-jacketed, 2-pair construction and differ mainly in conductor gauge. The 14AWG Shielded Cable 2 Pair has the lowest conductor resistance and suits higher-current or longer control/power runs; the 16AWG is a standard mid-size choice; the 18AWG is the most compact option for tight conduit fill on shorter runs.
Why use a tinned copper conductor instead of bare copper?
Tinning the copper conductor with a thin layer of solder resists oxidation and corrosion over the cable’s service life, helping maintain stable low-resistance connections at terminals in security and control panels.
How is the cable packaged, and what voltage is it rated for?
The cable is rated for 300V and ships in standard 305m boxes with sequential length markings printed on the gray PVC jacket, making it easy to track exact usage during installation.
Every reel of Heizka 14AWG Shielded Cable 2 Pair ships in a standard 305m pull-box with sequential length markings printed along the gray PVC jacket, ready to route two independent control or signal circuits directly into security panels, intercom systems, and access control installations without unnecessary splicing. Need a single-pair alternative? See Heizka’s 14AWG Shielded Cable (1 Pair) for a single-circuit version in the same gauge.
