The West Penn AQ296BK1000 is a 12 AWG, 2-conductor individually shielded bulk speaker cable built for permanent installed audio applications where moisture, UV exposure, and underground routing are design constraints. Its Aquaseal sunlight- and moisture-resistant PVC jacket with nylon-reinforced conductor insulation makes it a reliable choice for outdoor distributed audio systems, campus installations, theme park infrastructure, and any project requiring NEC-compliant direct-burial cable routing without conduit.

The 100% coverage aluminum polyester foil shield with a 24 AWG drain wire isolates each conductor pair from interference, which matters in mixed-use infrastructure trenches or in installations running near lighting or power conduit. The CL3, FPL, and PLTC multi-rating gives integrators the flexibility to use a single cable across low-voltage power, fire alarm notification, and line-level audio circuits where code requires it, reducing SKU count and simplifying procurement for large-scale installs.

Supplied on a 1,000-foot spool, this cable is sized for commercial integrators and contractors who are stocking for a project rather than purchasing by the foot. ASTM bare copper conductors with a stranded construction ensure reliable termination at both fixed and field-installed connectors throughout the run.
