RG-11
Coaxial cables are necessary for rooftop antennas and dish antennas in order to provide crystal-clear sound and audio input. RG-11 bands typically have 75-ohm wires made of copper. Polyethylene dielectric makes sure that there is minimal loss of picture and sound while the antenna receives audio or video feeds. Most users of the RG-11 have reported high-quality resolution of the images transferred by these cables.
RG-11 Specifications
| Type | RG-11 | RG-11A |
| Impedance Z0(Ω) | 75 | 75 |
| Dielectric | Solid Polyethylene | Solid Polyethylene |
| Time Delay (ns/ft) | 1.54 | 1.54 |
| Propagation Velocity (% of c) | 65.9 | 65.9 |
| Capacitance (pF/foot) | 20.6 | 20.6 |
| Outside Dimensions (inches) | 0.405 | 0.405 |
| dB/100ft @400MHz | 5.7 | 5.2 |
| Maximum Voltage (Vrms) | 4000 | 5000 |
| Shield | Braid | Braid |
You may wonder about the quality of protection built into these RG-11 coaxial cables. To start with, the bonded aluminum foil is more than enough to make sure that these cables are foolproof. It is also supported by more foil composed of 60% aluminum braid and 40% aluminum braid. Now that the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has tightened its rules and regulations, we can look forward to getting some enhanced protective measures from the RG-11 cables.
Features and Benefits
RG-11 cable has become especially important because it is included in the list of specifications required for the installation of CL1, CL2, CM, CMX and CMGs. For those who are concerned about the security of using these cables, they are tested to a range of about 3GHz to ensure that they provide the best possible performance when used at applicable frequencies. Above all, the simplest and the most unique feature is that the cable jacket is marked in sequence at intervals of two feet to help keep track of the length of the cable being used.
RG-11 coaxial cables are manufactured by a large number of companies. You should check out their websites to view the wide range of RH-11 coaxial cables available for purchase. Make sure you get a RG-11 cable that allows you to block transmission leakage without compromising the quality of the picture and audio.

- RG-6
RG-6 cable is one of the more common types of coaxial cables used for commercial and household purposes. The term RG-6 is a generic label that can be used to describe a whole range of cable designs. In fact, all cable designs described under RG-6 may well differ from one another in center conductor composition, [...]...
- RG-8
RG-8 is a 50-ohm coaxial cable that is used for radio transmission (for instance in amateur radio or CB). Recently, they have become an integral part of computer networks, as they can increase connectivity. One of the first things that someone will notice about RG-8 cables is that they are huge when compared to other [...]...
- RG-58
RG-58 is a coaxial cable that is used for wiring purposes. A coaxial cable, in general, consists of an inner conductor that is surrounded by a spacer. The coaxial cable is electrically charged and sometimes consists of different uninsulated conductors that remain entangled with one another. The insulating spacer of the cable is further surrounded [...]...
- RG-59
The RG-59 cable is a type of coaxial cable that is used to generate low-power video connections. The cable works on two conductors that are based on a single common axis. It is also used for RF signal connections. The RG-59 cable conducts video and radio frequencies at an impedance of around 75 ohms. The [...]...
- Coaxial Cable
Coaxial cable, also called coax, is used to transmit radio frequency (RF) signals. It has low emission losses and provides protection from electromagnetic interference, allowing signals with low power to be transmitted over longer distances. Coaxial cable is comprised of an inner core, insulator, shield, and outer cover. It is called coaxial because these sections [...]...
hello ,
I would like to know what is the BEST cable to run analog video for long distance ? ( 120+ Meters )
thanks .
RG11 by far is the best way to go for long runs. Aerial, cable run along side with it, is for hanging use while burial, gel coat for water protection, is buried to hide the long runs. Check out Ebay for good deals. FTA_Express is the seller I get mine from. By far, their prices have been great.
