Description
Condition: New
The BELDEN 9497 is a distinctive open-twisted speaker cable designed for indoor audio connections. Its flexible black-and-orange construction is suitable for home audio systems, passive speakers, power amplifiers, tube amplifiers, and custom audio projects.
Each conductor uses 16AWG high-conductivity ETP tinned-copper strands with durable PVC insulation. The twisted-pair construction keeps the conductors together while allowing them to be separated easily when attaching compatible terminals.
This listing is for one continuous 10-meter length of unprocessed cable. Plugs and connectors are not included. The cable can be cut to the required lengths and terminated with bare wire, banana plugs, spade terminals, or other compatible connectors.
