RG59 Coaxial Cable 100m
RG59 is a type of coaxial cable commonly used for low-frequency signal transmission, particularly in analog video and CCTV systems. It is characterized by its relatively thin diameter and flexibility, making it suitable for shorter runs and indoor applications.
🔧 Key Features:
-
Impedance:
-
75 Ohms (standard for video signal transmission)
-
-
Conductor:
-
Solid or stranded copper or copper-clad steel core (typically 20 to 22 AWG)
-
-
Shielding:
-
Single or dual shielding with braided copper, aluminum foil, or a combination
-
Helps reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI)
-
-
Dielectric Insulation:
-
Made from foam polyethylene (PE) or solid PE
-
Maintains consistent signal quality
-
-
Outer Jacket:
-
PVC or plenum-rated (for fire safety in commercial installations)
-
-
Bandwidth:
-
Supports low-frequency signals up to around 50 MHz to 1000 MHz (varies with length and quality)
-
-
Attenuation:
-
Higher than RG6, meaning more signal loss over distance
-
Recommended for shorter cable runs (under 100 ft)
-
🧰 Typical Applications:
-
CCTV surveillance systems
-
Composite video signals (RCA/BNC)
-
Closed-circuit TV installations
-
Analog cable TV
-
Low-power RF connections
