A "Belden equivalent" cable isn't a brand — it's a promise that a cable matches a known Belden construction, like the 8723's two individually screened pairs, so your CCTV signal performs the same whether you pay for the US-made original or a UK-stocked match. For most installers, that distinction is what separates a wire & cable that quietly does its job for a decade from one that causes crosstalk and callbacks. This guide breaks down what "equivalent" actually guarantees, and where to find genuine Belden 8723 Equivalent 2-Pair LSZH 20m ethernet cable without overpaying for the name on the jacket.
Belden Equivalent Cctv Cable: Full Uk Cross-Reference Table (2026)
The only Belden equivalent cross-reference figures we can verify against our own stock are the 8723 equivalents; treat any other part-number match as a construction claim to check against the original Belden datasheet before ordering. Belden 8723 equivalent cable is the one reference point we can back with pricing: it's a 2-pair individually screened cable with an LSZH outer sheath, and both variants we stock are the same 100m reel format at broadly similar money.
| Belden part | UK equivalent cable | Format | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Belden 8723 | Belden 8723 Equivalent 2-Pair LSZH Cable | 100m reel | Entry-level |
| Belden 8723 (Type) | CQR CABTP2X2/GY/LSF100, 2 individually screened pairs, CPR Euroclass Eca | 100m reel, grey | Entry-level |
| Belden 73003WS | 3-core shielded control cable | per metre | Mid-range |
Searches for belden 9540 equivalent, belden 9729 equivalent, belden 9501 equivalent, belden 1694a equivalent, belden 8761 equivalent, belden 1502r equivalent, belden 9842 equivalent, belden 9463 equivalent, belden 8760 equivalent, belden 8471 equivalent, belden 9418 equivalent, belden 9504 equivalent, belden 9402 equivalent, belden 8770 equivalent, belden 9502 equivalent and belden 3105a equivalent are common, but our dossier doesn't hold a verified matching SKU for those parts — don't take a generic "equivalent" listing on trust without checking screen type, conductor gauge and jacket rating against the original spec sheet. The 73003WS is a genuine control-cable stock item, useful for panel wiring rather than long camera runs. When no cross-reference is confirmed, ask the supplier for the actual construction data, not just the Belden number.
