The Vertical Cable Access Control Cable Riser is a versatile solution for various access control systems, including panels, card readers, sensors, and alarm systems. This 500ft spool combines multiple wire types (22AWG/3 Pair Shielded + 18AWG/4 Conductor + 22AWG/4 Conductor + 22AWG/2 Conductor) in one pull, significantly saving installation time.
Users have praised the cable's stiffness, which aids in handling during installation. However, it's noted that the outer shell can be cut to access inner wires as needed. The quality of the cable is generally good, but there have been isolated incidents of damage within the spool, which can lead to additional labor costs if not detected early.
Despite these issues, the cable is considered cost-effective compared to other distributors. It's particularly useful for connecting doors to access control processor boxes and supports multiple functionalities like weigand card readers and door sensors. Buyers are advised to order in advance due to longer delivery times.
Overall, while there are some concerns regarding potential damage within the spool, the Vertical Cable Access Control Cable Riser offers a reliable and economical option for complex access control installations.
