Drop Cable - RG59 Series
Antenna Systems & Solutions is proud to offer Antenna Factory RG59, RG6, RG7, & RG11 series Drop Cable. The outer conductor (braiding type) for each
series has double shield (standard shield), tri-shield and quad
shield. The double shield is mainly used for CATV networks below
1000MHz and satellite ground receiving systems below 3000MHz.
Tri-shield and quad shield are applied to HFC networks as drop
cable. If you have any questions or would like to place an order, please feel free to contact us or send us an Email.
