Coaxial Cable


Shielded	Double Shielded	Quad Shielded

Often used in radio transmission, network connections, and digital audio feed, this cable transmits audio, video, and data signals.

Shielded—Shielded cable has a layer of braid that blocks signal interference from nearby equipment and devices.

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.

RG-58/U Cable and RG-59/U Cable—RG-58/U and RG-59/U cable are good for low frequency transmissions such as radio signals.

RG-62A/U Cable—RG-62A/U cable is often used in computer networks and electronics.

RG-174/U Cable—RG-174/U cable has a small diameter, so it’s easy to coil.

RG-213/U Cable—RG-213/U cable has the largest diameter, so it's thicker and more robust than other coaxial cable. It is used in high frequency transmissions such as ground communications.

RG-316/U Cable—RG-316/U cable has the smallest diameter, so it is extremely flexible for routing in tight spaces. Its FEP insulation withstands high temperatures. It is often used in military equipment.
