Core Regulatory & Fire Compliance Standards
Every reel of Genesis cable supplied by Esentia Systems is selected to help professional installers meet inspection requirements, system specifications, and the installation environment required by the project. Genesis low-voltage cables are engineered for dependable performance across security, fire alarm, access control, HVAC, networking, audio/video, and building technology applications.
| Jacket Rating | Environment Classification | Primary Compliance Attribute |
|---|---|---|
| Plenum (CMP / FPLP / CL2P / CL3P) | Air-handling spaces, plenum ceilings, fabricated ducts, and environmental air spaces | Low-smoke, flame-rated cable constructions designed for plenum installations where stricter fire-performance requirements apply. Genesis plenum fire alarm products include listings such as FPLP, CL3P, and FT6, while select communication products reference CMP and plenum-rated standards. |
| Riser (CMR / FPLR / CL2R / CL3R) | Vertical shafts, risers, trunks, and multi-floor cable pathways | Designed to limit flame propagation between floors in vertical pathways. Genesis riser fire alarm products include listings such as FPLR, CL3R, and FT4, and select coaxial/riser products include CMR, CL2R, CATVR, and FT4 ratings. |
| Direct Burial / Outdoor | Underground runs, exterior pathways, exposed low-voltage circuits, and outdoor device connections | Built for harsher environments with moisture-resistant, sunlight-resistant, and water-blocked constructions. Genesis direct burial Cat6 cable is described as water-blocked and direct-burial rated to help protect devices from moisture damage and corrosion. |
| Fire Alarm / Life Safety | Fire alarm, emergency signaling, detection, notification, and life-safety circuits | Genesis Fire & Life Safety cable is positioned for critical systems where continuous high performance matters. Product listings include plenum, riser, and direct-burial fire alarm options, with examples such as FPLP, FPLR, FPL, CL2, CL3P, CL3R, FT4, and FT6, depending on the cable type. |
| Data / Communication | Voice, data, IP surveillance, access control, automation, and network-connected systems | Genesis networking and communication cables are designed to protect signal integrity and support reliable connectivity. Direct burial Category 6 cable meets or exceeds TIA-568.2-D Category 6, is sunlight resistant, and is REACH/RoHS compliant. |
Genesis product lines are available with application-specific UL, ETL, C(ETL)US, FT4, FT6, NEC-related, and low-voltage circuit ratings depending on the cable family. Options include plenum, riser, general-purpose, direct-burial, sunlight-resistant, and water-resistant constructions, helping installers match the cable jacket and listing to the jobsite environment, inspection requirements, and connected system type. Always confirm the final rating on the individual Genesis product cut sheet before installation, since compliance markings vary by cable construction, conductor count, shielding, voltage rating, and application.
