Aiphone 86220810C – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can I use Aiphone 86220810C wire for an NHX Series intercom run?
That is what it is built for. The 86220810C is a 4 pair, 22 AWG low capacitance cable with color coded pairs that match the NHX Series, and it is technically matched to the designated system's wire specifications. Using generic 22 AWG station wire instead can throw off the capacitance the system expects.
2) Is this Aiphone cable rated for in-wall plenum or riser installation, and what does the jacket allow?
The 86220810C carries a (UL) CL3, CM, FPL c(UL)us cable rating with a PVC jacket and foamed polyethylene insulation. CL3 and CM cover general purpose in-wall communications runs, and FPL covers power limited fire alarm circuits. It is UL and c(UL)us listed, so it works on jobs in both the US and Canada. It is not a plenum rated cable, so it should not go in an air handling space that requires plenum.
3) What is the capacitance and resistance on this 22 AWG shielded intercom wire for long runs?
Capacitance is 12.1 pF/ft and DC resistance is 16.1 ohms per 1000 feet at 68 degrees F. Those two numbers are what decide maximum distance on an audio/video intercom run, so use them against the distance chart for the system you are wiring. The low capacitance construction with twisted pairs and an overall shield is the reason it holds signal further than ordinary 22 AWG.
4) Is this an unshielded cable or does it have a drain shield I need to terminate?
It is shielded. The 86220810C uses twisted pairs with an overall shield, which means the shield has to be grounded at one end only on the run. Grounding both ends creates a loop and you get hum on the audio.
5) Is the Aiphone 86220810C wire suitable for a commercial building, and is it RoHS compliant?
It is classified for commercial use and is RoHS III and REACH compliant, and it is made in the USA. That combination matters on government, healthcare, and education specs where compliance documentation gets requested with the submittal.
