Re: Video/Audio Cable Question

Posted by hotp on July 13, 2000 at 18:23:27:
This is a pricy suggestion, but it works. Belden makes model 1694A RG-6, SDI/HDTV coax for hookups like you've got. This is part of their "Brilliance" line of cables; it can carry a 3 gHZ signal with little degradation over long distances. I'm using a much shorter run and notice a marked improvement in picture quality. Read the specs at Belden's website. HAVE, Inc. (www.have.com) sells the stuff, but there are other distributors. They mount Canare F-connectors that are excellent. If the price is too high, look at Belden 1694A quad shield.
