Chris,

I'd check with the cable manufacturer on that question. Plenum cable is designed to NOT give off toxic gases into a breathing-air plenum in case of a fire. I'm not sure this means that the cable will continue to survive and perform when intentionally exposed to high temperatures. You may find that there is a high-temp cable version that is more appropriate. It's also possible that standard cable might have a temperature rating high enough for your use considering that the dryer vent isn't carrying plenum air that anyone would be breathing.

Will plenum rated cable stand up to the heat/moisture of a dryer vent
pipe?  Im trying to get a run of cable top to bottom on an 8 story
building and the easiest access is through a common dryer vent that
feeds laundry facilities on all 8 floors.

Thanks,
