SCP 16/6-RGBTW-BK
6-Conductor 16AWG LED RGB+Tunable White Cable | UL CMR CL3R | 500ft Spool – Black
The Right Cable for Serious Lighting Installations
Most LED cable problems show up after the job is done — voltage drop on long runs, conductors too thin for the load, certifications that don't meet code. The SCP 16/6-RGBTW-BK is built to avoid all of that. Six 16AWG conductors in one jacket mean you run a single cable from controller to fixture, cover RGB plus warm and cool white channels, and still have the ampacity to handle real-world loads without derating.
It's a staple for integrators working in hospitality, high-end residential, and commercial architectural lighting — anywhere color tuning and dimming need to be reliable, not just functional.
Conductor & Construction
The six conductors are stranded bare copper — 26 strands of 0.25mm each — giving you a flexible, pull-friendly cable that doesn't stiffen up after a few bends. At 2.11mm² cross-section per conductor, 16AWG handles up to 5.0A at 25°C, which gives you real headroom on longer runs where thinner cables would force you to either shorten the run or derate the load.
Each conductor is individually insulated in PVC (0.30mm avg thickness, 2.0mm diameter) and color-coded — Black, Red, White, Green, Blue, and Brown — so termination is fast and wiring mistakes are easy to catch before commissioning.
The outer jacket is black PVC, 7.0mm in diameter, with a nylon rip cord for clean, tool-free stripping in the field. Tight tolerances throughout: jacket thickness min 0.60mm, conductor insulation min 0.28mm.

Certifications & Code Compliance
- UL 13, Type CL3 — rated for in-wall and general wiring applications per NEC
- c(UL) CMR — suitable for riser installations between floors
- CL2/3R — outdoor riser rated
- FT4 — passes the UL vertical flame test
- EU RoHS 2011/65/EU — compliant for projects with environmental material requirements
The cable is footmarked along its entire length so you always know exactly how much you've pulled. No guessing, no waste.
Where It's Used
The 16/6-RGBTW-BK is the standard choice when a project calls for full RGB color plus independent warm and cool white control over a single cable run:
- Architectural lighting — cove lighting, facade illumination, feature walls
- Hospitality — hotel rooms, lobbies, restaurants with dynamic scene control
- High-end residential — KNX, Control4, Crestron, and Lutron smart home systems
- Commercial — retail displays, conference rooms, biodynamic lighting installations
Compatible with KNX DALI-2, DMX512, 0-10V, and PWM LED controllers. The 16AWG gauge is particularly well-suited for runs where a thinner cable would produce noticeable color shift or brightness inconsistency at the fixture end.
