Coaxial Cable

Double Shielded

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.

Ethernet and Coaxial Cable Strippers


	One Coaxial Cable Layer Stripped	Two Coaxial Cable Layers Stripped

Strip both Ethernet and coaxial cable using the four replaceable blade cartridges. The Ethernet cable cartridge strips the outer insulation of unshielded twisted-pair cable. Two coaxial cable cartridges are for two-layer stripping; one is for one-layer stripping.

Coaxial Cable Ratchet Crimpers

For Crimp-On F-Type

Connection

The ratchet applies the correct pressure to ensure a complete crimp every time.

Select the appropriate crimper by multiplying the outside diameter of your coaxial connector’s ferrule by 0.87 and choosing the crimper with the closest matching cavity size.
