Belden 1617A 010, Coax CATV Cable 14 AWG DBL SH PVC Black

Belden 1617A 010 is a Series 11 broadband coax cable (RG 11) built with a 14 AWG solid BCCS - Bare Copper Covered Steel conductor, PE - Polyethylene (Foam) insulation, and a black PVC - Polyvinyl Chloride jacket. It uses a Quad Shield (F/B+F/B) design with foil and aluminum braid layers (60% and 40% coverage) to help reduce interference. This 75 Ohm coax is rated CM and includes a UL voltage rating of 300 V (CM). Environmental suitability is listed for indoor (not riser or plenum) and indoor, aerial - black only, when supported by messenger wire.
