ECN Forum Forums General Topics of the Trade Voice - Data - Video Discussion What Cable Should I Use?

Who is the cable company?

If it's Cox or Comcast they use quad-shield cable, usually Commscope F6SSVV. I have seen TFC (Times Fiber Coax) cable used also, but not within the last several years.

If it's Adelphia, they were using double-shield cable because they were too poor to pay for quad-shield I have no idea what they're using now that Comcast owns them. Probably quad-shield.
