Hi All
After 10 years my satellite cable is showing signs of wear and tear (cracks in the plastic coating)
I know i need rg6 cable (i think) but have seen others like rg11 and rg58, can someone tell me what the difference is and is there different types of rg6 cable? and which is the best, it will be for a about 25 meter cable run
Many thanks Richard
Como indicas que esta cuarteado por el tiempo.
Entiendo que el cable es de PVC y expuesto al Sol.
Por eso los daños que comentas.
Si quieres usar cable PVC, una referencia de FTE Maximal
todo cobre, muy bueno puede ser K125+ (28dB/100m), pero dentro de 10 años estara igual.
K 300 W (28dB/100m) PVC Blanco
K 302 (28dB/100m) PVC Blanco (7.5mm de diametro cuidado)
Para no tener problemas con el Sol, usa cable PE, una referencia puede ser K125N (30dB/100)
Con aluminio en la malla:
K290B (28dB/100m) PE Negro
K290 BE (30dB/100m) PE beige
K290 BR (30dB/100m) PE marron
K 301 (28dB/100m) PE Negro (7.5mm de diametro cuidado)
En distribuidores de material de la casa Rover, puedes localizar cable
Bieffe tambien muy bueno, segun modelo
CO12A (28dB/100m) PE marron.
Si pones cable PVC, puedes poner una funda de tubo currugado (
el tubo utilizado por los electricistas [el doble], la funda externa es de PE) en la parte donde de el Sol, el tubo lo cortas con un cuter nuevo y metes dentro el cable de satelite,
este tubo despues de 20 años esta como el primer dia.
PD: Lo bueno no es barato.

As you state that this cracked by time.
I understand that the cable is exposed to the sun and PVC
So the damage you mention .
If you want to use PVC cable , a reference of all FTE Maximal
copper, can be very good K125 + (28dB/100m), but in 10 years will be like .
K 300 W (28dB/100m) PVC White
302 K (28dB/100m) PVC White (7.5mm diameter warnings)
To avoid problems with the Sun, using PE wire , a reference may be K125N (30dB/100m)
With aluminum mesh :
K290B (28dB/100m) PE Black
K290 BE (30dB/100m) beige PE
K290 BR (30dB/100m) PE Brown
301 K (28dB/100m) PE Black (7.5mm diameter warnings)
In material dealers house Rover , you can find Cable
Bieffe also very good, depending on model
CO12A (28dB/100m) PE brown .
If you put PVC cable , you can add a cover currugado tube
(the tube used by electricians [ twice ] , the outer sheath is PE) in the part where of the Sun , the tube you cut it with a new cutter and mess inside satellite cable ,
this tube after 20 years, this as the first day.
PS: Good is not cheap.
