Ancor RGB Lighting and Speaker Cable 250-Foot Spool

The Ancor RGB and Speaker Combination Cable is a 250-foot spool with four 18 AWG RGB conductors and two 16 AWG speaker conductors in one round jacket.

Combining both circuits in one jacket removes a whole cable pull from an audio and lighting installation. RGB lighting and speakers usually go to the same places on a boat, so running one cable instead of two halves the work of getting through bulkheads, under decks and around obstructions.

The RGB conductors are color coded yellow, red, blue and green, and the speaker pair is black and red. That coding matters at the termination end, where six conductors coming out of one jacket would otherwise need tracing individually.

Four 18 AWG conductors handle the RGB control and two 16 AWG handle the speaker circuit, which are the appropriate sizes for each job. Speaker wire needs more copper than lighting control signal, and a cable using one gauge throughout would either waste copper or undersize the audio. Explore more duplex and triplex cable.

• RGB and speaker in one jacket, one cable pull
• Both usually go to the same places on a boat
• 18 AWG for RGB, 16 AWG for the speaker pair
• Color coded so six conductors need no tracing
