  • If you were wondering what the differences between RG6 & RG59 coaxial cables are watch this video for more infomation.
    This video dicusses whether RG6 or equivalent like CT00 can be used for CCTV systems and whether RG59 can be used for TV aerial and satellite systems.

    Have question I have a rg59 cable cord but its build in the wall mean I can't take it out unless I have a professional do it will it work for charter spectrum because I try to use it and it not working do they need to reconnect my cable line outside because I think at&t uverse guys disconnect I think?

    Great video. I wouldn't recommend RG59 you experience signal loses not to mention interference especially on Aerial (UHF band mostly), Digital Cable TV or Satellite TV. I only recommend RG6 (triple shield). For example RG6 dual shielded is much better than RG59 Dual Shield or Triple Shield. RG59 is good for FM radio if you have an outdoor FM antenna or for RCA, Component or Digital Audio (SPDIF)

      @@user-es4hy7tr7u If you are looking for a particular brand I would recommend AMIKO brand they are experts in satellite, cable and terrestrial receiver satellite dishes, UHF antennas, LNBs, Diseq switches, Diplexers. They also make high quality cables. Since 2017 I only use AMIKO products for terrestrial television DVB-T2 and satellite television DVB-S2. And their cables are recommended for UHF bands especially if you combine an UHF aerial with LNB using diplexers.

    Hi i had cable labelled 19 patc installed by an electrician in an extension but have no receipts and unsure as this will do job .it will be used for freeview and linked to existing tv aerial .
    Does this reference sound familiar .it has copper looking centre with aluminium foil and thin aluminium braiding which i what alerted me compared to the cable you demonstrated .

    Do virgin media cables use rg59 or rg6 cables. Or can you use either?

    Can rg59 work with speeds up to 1 gbps? Is there a bottleneck? Would it work better with rg6?

      @Nicholas_Chris 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      If you are cable subscriber and have a modem from you cable operator. You mut use RG6 Tri shielded cable and Cat 6e. The RG6 cable will be used between the cable splitter and your cable modem, and the Cat 6e cable will be used between your cable modem and PC, Laptop, Gaming Console, Switch, Wi-Fi Router. Never use RG59 coaxial cable and Cat 5 or Cat 5e cable they make the internet speed worse. Note: Cat6e can deliver internet speeds up 1000 Mb/s with no problem

  • @icarossavvides2641
    @icarossavvides2641 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Don't use RG59 for digital TV signals in the UK. The frequency band being 470 MHz to 860 MHz means that RG59 will rob you of some 3dB/10metre, plus connector losses (that's 50%) at the low frequency end and a whopping 4dB at the top end! RG6 being substantially better at the top end. Given that DTV signals are so variable and that CT100 isn't that much dearer I feel it is false economy to use anything cheaper and also, if you're having it installed, the extra cost will fade in to insignificance taking in to account the installation costs themselves. I know 10 metres seems a long length but it soon gets used up when cabling up a house!
