Signal cable Hikvision DS-1AC6APL1, 305 m, core 0.22 mm², diameter 4.6 mm, blue

Hikvision DS-1AC6APL1 signal cable in blue, 305 m length, is designed for low-voltage signalling and alarm circuits. The cable features a bare stranded copper conductor and a durable outer jacket, making it suitable for wiring fire alarms, smoke detectors, voice communications and anti-theft systems in commercial and institutional buildings. It is produced to meet flame-retardant standards and is RoHS compliant.

Advantages

The stranded copper conductor offers lower resistance and improved transmission properties compared with solid conductors, while the robust jacket provides high tensile and compressive strength to reduce damage during installation. The cable comes on a reel-in-box format for easier handling and pulling. It is rated for continuous operation in a wide temperature range and meets relevant flame-retardant requirements.

Suitable for

• Wiring of fire alarm and smoke detection systems in high-rise office buildings
• Signal and voice communication lines in hospitals and hotels
• Anti-theft alarm circuits in entertainment venues and guest houses
• General low-voltage signalling runs requiring a flame-retardant cable

When it may not be suitable

This cable is intended for low-voltage signal and alarm circuits and is not designed for mains power distribution or high-current applications. It may not be appropriate where screened or shielded cable is required to prevent electromagnetic interference, or where specific fire performance classifications beyond standard flame retardancy are mandated.

Key specifications

• Length: 305 m
• Conductor: bare stranded copper
• Conductor cross-section (core size): 0.22 mm²
• Outer diameter: 4.6 mm
• Colour: Blue
• Operating temperature range: -20 to 70 °C (continuous)
• Flame retardant: compliant with EN50575
• RoHS compliance: yes

How to use

Install the cable following local electrical and fire safety regulations. Pull the cable from the reel-in-box to minimise twisting and damage, route through suitable trays or conduits where required, and terminate conductors at compatible alarm or signalling devices using appropriate connectors. Ensure proper separation from power cables if required by standards to avoid interference.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm that a non‑shielded signal cable meets your electromagnetic compatibility needs
• Verify the conductor cross-section (0.22 mm²) is sufficient for the intended signalling device
• Ensure the flame-retardant rating (EN50575) and operating temperature range suit the installation environment
• Check the required cable colour and length (305 m) for your project

Recommendations

Use this cable for structured alarm and signal wiring in commercial and institutional buildings; route in accordance with local codes, avoid sharp bends, and protect terminations to ensure reliable long-term performance.
