Coaxial cable (or "coax) is the most common cable used for transmitting video signals. The name "coaxial" refers to the common axis of the two conductors.
The coaxial cable for HFC include drop cable (braiding outer conductor type)and distribution cable (aluminum tube outer conductor type).Drop cables are RG59,RG6,RG7 and RG11 types.Distribution cables are 500,540 serials types etc. The drop cables for HFC are introduced herein.
P3 500/QR540
are the trunk cable of the CATV system. So it is the core part of the CATV, it determines the performance of TV signal transmission. So the highest quality and performance is very important for the whole CATV system. The most ordinary type of them are P3500JCA, P3 500JCAM109, QR540JCA, QR540JCAM109 and so on.
Drop cable and distribution(or trunk) cable are belong to 75 ohms coaxial cable, 50 ohms coxial cable is another type. 50 ohms types include: MIL SPEC (RG58A/U RG58C/U RG58/U RG59A/U RG59B/U RG59C/U RG213/U RG214/U RG223/U); LMR series (LMR100 LMR195 LMR200 LMR240 LMR300 LMR400 LMR500 LMR600 LMR900 LMR1200 LMR1700), D-FB series (3D-FB 4D-FB 5D-FB 7D-FB 8D-FB 10D-FB 12D-FB).
Besides universal types, coaxial cable can also be different in different areas and applications. Here are several types which are also important over the world.
