CQR 8 Core LSF Low Smoke Full Copper Alarm Cable 100m – White (CAB8/WH/LSF/100M)

This is a 100m reel of 8-core alarm cable for wiring intruder alarm systems, access control, or any low-voltage signalling run where you need reliable, unbroken conductivity from panel to device.

What the specs mean

• 7 x 0.182mm tinned copper conductors, 8 cores — full copper (not copper-clad steel), so resistance stays low across longer runs, which matters if you're feeding several zones or devices from one panel.
• LSF (Low Smoke & Fume) jacket — if it's ever caught in a fire, it gives off less toxic smoke than standard PVC cable, a common requirement in commercial and multi-occupancy buildings.
• Unscreened — fine for standard alarm wiring where there's no significant electrical interference nearby; if you're running alongside mains cabling or noisy equipment, a screened cable would normally be the better choice.
• Manufactured to BS4737-3.30:2015 Type 2 — the recognised British Standard for alarm system cabling, so it's built to a known spec rather than a generic wire.
• EN50575 'CPR' compliant — meets the Construction Products Regulation, relevant if you need documentation for commercial installs.

Before you buy

Check your panel's maximum loop resistance and total cable run length before ordering — full copper cores like these help keep you within tolerance on longer or multi-zone runs. Colour is white, supplied as a single 100m reel.
