Questions & Answers
PVRG6BLK - PVRG6BLK - PVRG6BLK - PVRG6BLK - PVRG6BLK - PVRG This cable is a Dual shield, not a Tri shield, according to the manufacturer's specifications. I returned the item because I preferred Quad shield over the Tri shield that the seller claimed, but I would have accepted the Tri shield if it had been offered.
F81 Coaxial Connectors are what they're called, and yes, they do what they say. A 'Female F81 to Male N' adapter is available from us. The results can be found by searching on Amazon for 'F to N adapter.'
This is something that can be buried. Its life expectancy, on the other hand, is decreasing. We have a coaxial cable that has been designed specifically for burial - It's the color orange. "THE CIMPLE CO burial coaxial" is a term you can look up on Amazon.
This is a two-cable setup. I'm connecting it to my router from my FIOS ONT, and I'm getting 1 GB of internet and TV service. I've had it for about two years and have never had any problems with it, and I've been using dual shield for years with no problems.

Our camper will fit right in. The fact that it is weatherproof is a plus. I used it for camping in the rain over Memorial Day weekend and had no problems. It's the perfect length, not too short or too long.
installed to assist in the weatherproofing of the connection The end with the nut that you have to tighten also has a finger grip ring that is incredibly easy to turn onto whatever you are connecting it to, which is something I really liked. If you want to tighten it, you can use the wrench, but the finger ring will do it for you. You'll notice what I'm talking about if you look closely at the image or zoom in. That ring is stunning!.
We have a lot of coaxial cable from different manufacturers and eras, and this is by far the best. Purchase this book as soon as possible. I purchased a 50-foot cable (along with a few shorter ones). If I had to do it all over again, I would purchase at least 100 feet and cut it down to the length I require. It's a lot easier than you might think to replace connectors on cable. New connectors, wire cutters, a utility knife, and superglue are all you'll need. I found that this produced a much cleaner and more secure result than a cable stripper (which must be adjusted properly) and compression tool (which may or may not lock the connector in place). High-quality stripper and compression tools are necessary if you're a professional replacing hundreds of connections, but they're not required if you're only replacing a dozen or less. In any case, this is the cable to get if you want to use it indoors or outdoors.
Update: To finally connect to my TV, I needed one of those cable connectors as well as a short cable. This cable would never connect to my Samsung TV. It was easy to connect to the cable connector. The rating has been raised to three stars. br>br>An old one-star review: To get to the connection for my OTA antenna, I needed a long cable. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get this thing to connect to my TV. The rubber cover just gets in the way, and it won't connect, so I removed it, but it still won't connect. It's not the connection on my TV; other cables work fine. If I stand there and hold the cable in the connection, I get a nice picture, but that doesn't help me at all.
When a contractor was trenching for new construction, he cut through our Spectrum cable. I bought this cable as a temporary fix to repair the break and run it overhead so they wouldn't cut it again, but as soon as I connected and raised it, both connectors popped off. This is not a good idea.
I wanted to relocate the cable modem from where it had been installed by the cable company to a different room in my house. Everything synced up and is running great after I ran this cable 75 feet from the cable junction box to the new location. For the price, I strongly suggest this cable.
Female type connections were not properly installed on the end, the copper wire was covered in rubber insulation, and female connections were not attached. br>br>So, I bought a crimping kit and new connections, fixed the ends, and now the internet works perfectly fine. br>br>So, in conclusion, the product works great, but it may require additional work at the time of purchase. But let's hope this isn't a common occurrence.
At campgrounds, I've been battling stiff cables that were a nightmare to uncoil and connect to my portable satellite dish. It was even more difficult to coil them back up and store them in my motorhome. These cables were exactly what I was looking for to solve my issue. br>br>I bought a cord reel at Harbor Freight and wound two of these fifty-foot cables on it, making it very simple to reel out the length I require and then reel it back in. br>br>The cables are fairly flexible, but you'll need to fully stretch them and remove the curl before winding them onto the reel. I couldn't get them to connect to any of my equipment or use a coupling until I removed an eighth of an inch of the rubber weather seals. I like the round knurled tightening rings because I don't have to use a wrench to get a tight fit on the connectors after shortening the weather seals. br>br>The two cables that I received were not identical. One was slightly stiffer than the other, and the weather seals were different.
