Security & Access Control Multi‑Conductor Composite Plenum 4‑Element Non‑Jacketed (Construction 4)
Windy City Wire manufactures SmartWire® low-voltage composite cabling to help integrators, electrical contractors, and facility teams streamline access control installations at the door. Our 4‑element, plenum-rated, non‑jacketed composites bring together the conductors typically required for electrified locks, card readers, and door contacts in one organized pull, helping reduce conduit congestion and installation time.
Built in the United States, SmartWire® cables pair consistent electrical performance with practical jobsite advantages. Stranded copper conductors improve flexibility for faster terminations in tight frames. Where data integrity matters, shielded pairs (OAS) help mitigate noise from motors, power supplies, and other building systems. The plenum (CMP) rating supports code-compliant use in environmental air spaces, and clearly defined conductor color codes aid quick identification. SmartWire® Glide lubrication is applied to the cable jackets during manufacturing to reduce pull friction by up to 70%, supporting smoother pulls, fewer snags, and less rework in demanding pathways. All items in this category are supplied in 1000 FT lengths.
How this SmartWire® composite adds value
By combining the most common access control elements into a single, organized assembly, contractors can make one pull to each opening, cut down on change orders stemming from missing conductors, and maintain a clean, professional finish. The OAS shield on reader pairs helps protect sensitive data circuits, while unshielded power conductors deliver reliable current to electrified hardware. For multi‑door projects, this translates into consistent results, faster rough‑in and trim-out, and lower total installed cost without compromising system performance.
