Coaxial Cables

Coaxial Cables

RG 6

 

Application:

Often called coax for short, coaxial cables are a must-have for transmitting audio/video and broadband signals.

Getting the right type matters a lot if you want to send and receive data over distance without losing too much

signal strength along the way. The four main types you'll come across are RG6, RG58, RG59, and RG11.

 

Widely adopted as an industry standard, this cable works equally well indoors and outdoors. It commonly carries

A/V, HDTV, and broadband signals, and typically features a thicker dielectric and an additional aluminum shield.
