Item	URL & Description	Qty	Unit Price
	Belden 1308A 16/4 OFHC Oxygen Free High Conductance 500 ft Each zone uses one 16 guage 4 conductor speaker cable. Run this cable from the receiver location to the zone. Run thru the wallbox that will house the keypad and continue on to the ceiling. Split the cable into the left and right speaker pair at approx the ceiling fan location and take the individual speaker pair about 4 feet away from center. This is the future speaker location. Leave a 2 foot service loop and secure the cable to 2x4. Make a diagram, or take a picture so this location can be located and cut after sheetrock installation, for the speaker install. Belden exclusive features: low capacitance/high conductivity, audiophile grade, superior frequency response, ideal for extended distance runs.	1	$262.75
	Belden Datatwist 2400 Enhanced Category 6 Cable UTP Riser (CMR) - 100 Ft (White) Cat5e works for keypad cable runs but cat6 can handle installation abuse better. 500 Ft of this cable should work for most 8-zone installs, add another 250 feet if you are wiring a larger home.
