Description
Monoprice 4 Wire, UL, 26AWG, Stranded, Silver - 1000ft
Experience reliable, professional-grade telecommunication wiring with the Monoprice 4 Wire 26 AWG Stranded Phone Cable in a durable 1000ft bulk roll. This flat, silver-colored cable is designed for flexible routing in homes, small offices, and workspaces, delivering clear voice quality and dependable signaling across multiple devices. The four conductors are constructed from stranded copper, which enhances flexibility and resilience during installation, reducing the risk of kinks and breaks when you snake the cable through tight corridors, under floors, or along baseboards. The UL Listed rating assures compliance with safety standards, giving installers confidence in performance and reliability. Note that this cable is NOT CL2 rated, meaning it is intended for low-voltage telecom and signaling applications rather than in-wall power distribution. Ideal for bulk projects, this 1000ft spool minimizes the need for frequent reorders and helps you plan scalable wiring for phones, intercoms, alarm systems, small data lines, and other low-voltage circuits. Whether you’re wiring a home office, a storefront, or a workshop, this cable’s four-conductor design supports multiple lines or control channels, helping you keep wiring organized and efficient while preserving voice quality and signal integrity across runs.
- 4 conductors of 26 AWG stranded copper deliver flexible, low-resistance voice and signaling performance with reduced crosstalk.
- Flat, silver-colored jacket simplifies routing through tight spaces, along walls, under carpets, and inside conduits for a neat, unobtrusive install.
- 1000 feet of bulk cable provides ample length for large projects, bulk rewiring, and cost-effective stocking for ongoing telecom needs.
- UL Listed for safety and quality; not CL2 rated, so it’s suitable for low-voltage telecom and signaling, not in-wall power applications.
- Broad compatibility with standard telephony equipment, including landline phones, PBX systems, intercoms, alarm panels, and simple data or signaling setups.

how to install Monoprice 4 Wire, UL, 26AWG, Stranded, Silver - 1000ft
- Plan your route: Identify the devices you’ll connect (phones, intercoms, alarm panels) and map a path that minimizes sharp bends and avoids high-heat areas.
- Unroll and measure: Uncoil the 1000ft spool and measure the required length for each run. Add a little extra slack at endpoints to allow for connections, then cut with appropriate cutters.
- Prepare the conductors: Use a suitable wire stripper to remove a small amount of insulation from the end of each conductor. For 26 AWG, expose approximately 1/4 inch (about 6–7 mm) of copper to ensure a solid terminal connection.
- Terminate properly: Attach the four conductors to your chosen termination method—modular RJ-11 connectors, punch-down blocks, or screw-terminal panels—keeping the conductor order consistent from source to destination to avoid cross-wiring.
- Secure and label: Use cable ties or clips to secure the run neatly, label ends for easy future maintenance, and keep slack minimal to reduce movement and wear.
- Test the circuit: After installation, test continuity and signal integrity with a phone or appropriate testing device to confirm correct wiring and reliable operation before finalizing the project.
Frequently asked questions
- Q: Is this cable CL2 rated? A: No. This cable is UL Listed but NOT CL2 rated, so it is intended for low-voltage telecom and signaling applications, not for in-wall power distribution.
- Q: What are the conductor specifications? A: The cable uses four 26 AWG stranded copper conductors, providing flexibility and reliable voice signaling across multiple lines.
- Q: What is the length and bulk format? A: The cable comes in a 1000-foot bulk spool, ideal for large projects and continuous wiring installations.
- Q: What devices is it compatible with? A: It is suitable for traditional landline phones, PBX systems, intercoms, alarm panels, and other low-voltage telecom or signaling devices requiring a 4-conductor setup.
- Q: How does the flat, silver jacket benefit installation? A: The flat profile makes routing through tight spaces easier, reduces bulk under baseboards or along walls, and helps with tidy labeling and organized cabling.
