Audio speaker cable SCP 12 AWG 2-conductor OFC HD model 12/2OFC-HD-WT-D — 152 m, White

SCP 12/2OFC-HD-WT-D is a two-conductor speaker and audio cable built with 12 AWG oxygen-free copper (OFC) conductors on a 152 m (500 ft) pull-box. The cable uses high strand-count conductors in a twisted-pair, unshielded construction with a heavy-duty, UV-treated PVC jacket in white. It is designed for fixed speaker and audio system installations where low resistance, reliable signal transfer, and visible routing are required. The jacket includes sequential length markings and room/zone/outlet designations for easier identification during installation.

Advantages

The cable offers 99.97% oxygen-free copper conductors and a high strand count to reduce resistance and improve flexibility. Its heavy-duty PVC jacket is UV-treated for sunlight resistance and rated for direct-burial and in-wall applications where permitted. The easy-strip conductor construction and pull-box format simplify installation and handling in professional audio and home-theater setups.

Suitable for

• Fixed speaker wiring in home theater and hi‑fi systems
• Professional in-wall audio installations (where in-wall rating applies)
• Outdoor runs exposed to sunlight and some direct-burial scenarios
• Permanent installations requiring visible white jacket routing

When it may not be suitable

This unshielded cable is not intended for environments with high electromagnetic interference where shielded cable would be required to prevent noise. It is also not a substitute for specialized network or low-voltage control cables that require different conductor arrangements or insulation properties.

Key specifications

• Conductor: Oxygen-free copper, approx. 99.97% purity
• Gauge: 12 AWG, high strand-count construction
• Configuration: 2 conductors, twisted pair, unshielded
• Jacket: Heavy-duty UV-treated PVC, white
• Length: 152 m (500 ft) on pull-box
• Ratings: In-wall CMR / CEC CMG FT4 and sunlight/direct-bury resistant (refer to local code for burial and in-wall use)
• Features: Sequential length markings and room/zone/outlet labeling on jacket

How to use

Route the cable from the amplifier or receiver to the speaker locations following local electrical and building codes. Cut required lengths using the sequential markings on the jacket for measurement. Strip the jacket and conductor insulation using appropriate tools, attach compatible speaker connectors or banana plugs to the male-terminated ends as needed, and secure connections to the amplifier and speaker terminals. For in-wall or buried installations, confirm compliance with applicable in-wall and burial regulations before proceeding.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the need for unshielded speaker cable versus shielded cable for your environment
• Confirm in-wall and direct-burial suitability with local codes and installation conditions
• Ensure 12 AWG gauge meets run length and power requirements for your speakers
• Decide on visible white jacket routing versus concealed or alternative jacket colors

Usage recommendations

Use this 12 AWG OFC speaker cable for runs where low resistance and flexibility are important; keep unshielded runs away from strong electrical sources to minimize interference and follow local codes for in-wall or burial installations.
