Belden 8451-500-BLK Reviews

Go-to wire for rack/cabinet wiring or line-level connections

By Glenn

For years I've used Belden's 8451 as an economical wire for line-level signals. 100% foil shielding. PVC jacketed and thin so easy to route/pull. Because it's PVC, it's best for cabinet/rack/premises wiring (where plenum wiring isn't required), but will work equally well for making up RCA or 1/4 cables. For stage cables regularly handled, you'd want Belden's rubber-jacketed cabling.

My favorite since 1970

This miniature balanced microphone cable is very sturdy to withstand snake pulls through long conduit runs with a very smooth jacket that slides well inside conduits with other wires already present. This job was to replace a long run of damaged miniature mic cable in an in-service conduit at a church, and add two more balanced pairs to run from the altar to the balcony at the back of the sanctuary.
