RG 6 coaxial cable



RG 6 coaxial cable description
RG6 Coaxial Cable is a high-performance 75-ohm coaxial cable widely used in television signal distribution, satellite TV, and broadband applications. It is engineered for low signal attenuation and high shielding efficiency, ensuring superior audio and video transmission quality. The inner conductor is typically made of copper-clad steel (CCS), which combines the conductivity of copper with the strength of steel, making it ideal for long-distance signal transmission without significant signal loss. Surrounding the conductor is a layer of foamed polyethylene (FPE) insulation, which offers excellent dielectric strength and reduces high-frequency signal attenuation.
For shielding, RG6 features a dual-shield structure: a layer of aluminum-polyester (aluminum foil) tape and a braided aluminum wire mesh. This double-layer shield protects the signal from external electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI), helping maintain signal clarity even in environments with multiple electronic devices. The cable is further protected by a tough outer jacket, usually made of PVC or PE, providing flexibility, weather resistance, and mechanical durability.
Due to its optimized design and materials, RG6 is the preferred choice for cable TV (CATV) installations, satellite receivers, and set-top boxes, where consistent signal quality and image clarity are critical. Its structure ensures a stable connection, minimizes signal degradation, and supports high-definition content transmission with minimal noise and distortion.
