Is coax cable plenum rated?

Description & Applications: Remee Plenum Coax Cables carry a CMP rating, allowing them to be used in air plenums within buildings. For Plenum rated cables, this falls under NFPA-262. The UL equivalent is the UL-910 standard, which is made up of two primary tests, cable burn properties and smoke density.

What is RG58 coaxial cable used for?

RG-58/U is a type of coaxial cable often used for low-power signal and RF connections. The cable has a characteristic impedance of either 50 or 52 Ω. “RG” was originally a unit indicator for bulk RF cable in the U.S. military’s Joint Electronics Type Designation System.

Is RG58 and RG6 the same?

RG 59 has a smaller conductor than RG 6, which means that it can’t achieve the same signal quality as RG 6. The way its shielding is designed also means that it doesn’t keep Gigahertz level signals inside the conductor very well. This is why RG 59 probably isn’t a good choice for your TV or internet connection.

Can plenum cable be buried?

Plenum cable is rated for the “plenum spaces” in buildings, which are simply the parts of the building that facilitate air circulation in heating and air conditioning systems. This designation simply means that the cable has been engineered to be buried without any kind of outside protection.

Is RG58 a 75 ohm?

What is the difference between RG58 and RG-59?

Q: What is the difference between RG-58 and RG-59 coaxial cable? A: RG-58 is 50-ohm coaxial cable and is typically used for radio communications and thin Ethernet networks. RG-59 is 75-ohm coaxial cable for CCTV and cable TV. Some also use RG-6 for video connections.

Can I use RG6 instead of RG58?

RE: RG6 versus RG58 This shows that RG6 is good for 2x the distance of RG58. As for the maximum distance that any coax is good for, it depends upon how much loss you can tolerate and how much noise pickup will happen.
