SCP speaker cable 14 AWG 4-conductor model 14/4SP-DB-100 with male-to-male connectors, 100 m, Black

SCP 14/4SP-DB-100 is a 4-conductor, 14 AWG speaker/audio cable supplied on a 100 m (328 ft) reel. Designed for direct-burial outdoor and landscape speaker systems, this black cable uses high-strand-count oxygen-free copper conductors in an unshielded twisted-pair construction. The conductors are gel-filled and protected by a linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) jacket to resist moisture, temperature changes and UV exposure. The reel includes sequential length markings and zone/drop designations for straightforward identification during installation.

Advantages

The cable combines high-strand-count oxygen-free copper for improved conductivity and flexibility with a flooded (gel-filled) interior and LLDPE direct-burial jacket for enhanced moisture and temperature resistance. Its construction supports long speaker runs and multi-channel audio wiring while remaining flexible enough for routing in landscape and outdoor installations. Clear sequential markings on the jacket simplify measurement and identification on site.

Suitable for

• Direct-burial landscape and garden speaker systems
• Outdoor professional audio installations where conduit is not used
• Home theater multi-channel speaker runs with long cable distances
• Long-distance speaker and audio connections requiring 14 AWG conductors

When it may not be suitable

This unshielded cable is not intended for applications that require EMI/RFI shielding or where electrical interference is a concern. It is also not intended for permanent in-wall installations inside buildings where local electrical or building codes mandate plenum-rated or specific indoor-rated cables.

Key specifications

• Conductors: 4 conductors, 14 AWG each, high-strand-count oxygen-free copper
• Construction: Twisted-pair, unshielded, gel-filled (flooded)
• Jacket: LLDPE direct-burial jacket, black, UV resistant
• Length: 100 m (328 ft) reel
• Termination: Supplied with male-to-male speaker terminations

How to use

Plan your run and locate the route avoiding sharp bends or places with heavy mechanical stress. Unspool the cable from the reel and use the sequential foot/meter markings to measure required lengths. For direct-burial installs without conduit, dig an appropriate trench depth according to local codes and lay the cable on stable soil. Use appropriate connectors or terminal blocks to attach male-to-male terminations to speaker and amplifier outputs, ensuring correct polarity. Backfill the trench and compact soil, avoiding rocks or debris that could damage the jacket.

What to consider before purchase

• Whether an unshielded cable is acceptable for your environment or if a shielded option is needed to avoid interference
• Local building and electrical codes for direct-burial cable depth and indoor/plenum requirements
• The required cable length and whether 100 m reel size meets your run needs
• Compatibility of male terminations with your speakers and amplifier connections

Usage recommendations

For best results in outdoor landscape speaker systems, maintain proper trench depth per local regulations, avoid tight bends, and verify polarity at both ends. If the installation route passes near sources of electrical interference, consider a shielded cable alternative.
