RG-6 Cable

[Michael15956]

Is RG-6 cable listed for direct burial?

 

[480sparky]

Depends on the listing. Some is, some isn't.

 

[Oakey]

I have been unable to find direct burial or sunlight resistant RG6. I was told that only the local cable company has these items.

 

[480sparky]

Both are available over the counter. Just Google "Direct Burial RG-6" and "Sunlight Resistant RG-6"

while it is hard to find, its not exclusive to the cable utilities. With enough $$$, one can aquire most anything.

"flooded RG-6" that I buy at the supply house by that name is okay'd for burial.

 

[LarryFine]

Or try RG-6U.

 

[jacobsond]

The flooded RG-6 I get from my supplier http://www.nesselectronics.com/index.php retails $129 for 500 ft. $99 wholsale cost. It is considered for burial. As far as UV the black coax I have used for a 100yrs has never had a prob. the colored stuff white,grey ext on the other hand dosent do well in the sun.

The RG6U I got cost 106 dollars for 500ft..
