    industrial info icon

    Compare wire vs. cable and choose the right option based on gauge, number of conductors, insulation, and current rating.

    Quad Shielded

    Often used in radio transmission, network connections, and digital audio feed, this cable transmits audio, video, and data signals.
    Double Shielded—Double shielded cable has a layer of braid and foil shielding for better protection against signal interference than foil alone. Use it in environments with high signal distortion, such as near transformers, generators, and heavy duty motors.
    Quad Shielded—Quad shielded cable has two layers of braid and two layers of foil for the most protection against signal interference and the clearest signal.
    RG-6/U Cable—RG-6/U cable is good for medium to high frequency transmissions and is often used in satellite signal transmission.
