Somfy SDN / RS-485
Liberty Wire & Cable Somfy systems control cable for power and data.
Selling unit1 spool = 500 ftCL3R · Non-plenum
- 14 AWG power pair.
- 22 AWG three-conductor shielded control triad with a 24 AWG drain.
- NEC CL3R non-plenum jacket; 500-foot spool.
System guidance and reference
Use when the project design calls for this non-plenum cable. Confirm conductor arrangement, topology, power requirements, installation length and local code.

System planning and specifications
For a Cresnet installation, follow the connected equipment's wiring instructions and check the power available for the devices on each cable run. Cable length, connected load and power-conductor size affect the design; the length purchased is not a guaranteed operating distance.
Liberty-branded LUTRON-GRN uses a twisted, shielded 22 AWG data pair with a twisted, unshielded 18 AWG power pair in a CM/CMG FT4 jacket. Sold in 100-foot units, up to 1,000 feet.

System guidance and project documents
Use the cable when the project specification calls for this construction and the applicable Lutron system instructions. Confirm the connected equipment, power requirements and installation length before ordering.
For a project quote, include the specified cable reference, system or controller, longest run, pathway or jacket requirement, quantity and any required submittal documents. RF-AV can compare the manufacturer documentation with the project specification so the requested option is clear for the project's decision authority.
Need a job-specific cable or kit?
RF-AV can help assemble and package a project-specific kit around your documented requirements. We can review the components, lengths, labels, documentation and packaging needed for the job.
Share the details you know. On the project quote page, use Request details to describe the job. You can leave unknown details open for review.
-
System and parts: application or controller, exact part numbers if known, cable construction and jacket requirement. Say whether substitutions are allowed.
-
Quantities and lengths: one line per item. State reel count and length per reel, or number of pieces and length per piece. Identify any length needed in one continuous piece.
-
Kit requirements: number of kits and contents per kit; connector requirements, labels, packaging and any documents or test records requested.
-
Delivery: city/state/ZIP and arrival date. Say whether the date is required or preferred.
Quantity example only: 3 reels × 500 ft each = 1,500 ft total. Keep as 3 separate reels; no substitutions.
Have a specification or drawing? Mention it in your request. RF-AV can confirm how to share the file.
RF-AV will review the requested configuration. Specific assembly methods, testing, certifications, performance limits, turnaround and warranty terms require confirmation for the project.
