What spec is the coax CABLE (e.g. RG-6) and terminations (e.g. F, N) used in this kit. thx.

Dont know about the coax. The terminations are N between the external antenna and the device, and N/F from the device to internal antena

From what I remember it's @30'. It's possible to extend it a short amount with high quality RG6 coax. You'll need TNC to F adapters & you must use the length of the supplied coax in order to maintain the 50 ohm impedance that the transceiver needs.

Proprietary minature coax used by most/all XM rcvrs. If you need extra length, purchase extension from them, etc.

You probaably could use that cable, but i thinks its overkill, RG-6 coax would suffice

I am using RG6 coax and have had it installed for 8 years. RG6 has twice the bandwidth of RG59. I've dug a little on the Internet and I saw reference of using RG6 to connect the antenna to the radio unit. My recommendation is to use RG6.

Yes RG8-50 ohm coax will work--But remember, if you are planning on running alot of watts, you should run RG 213--its the bigger coax--but yes, to answer your question, RG8 coax will work for sure.

No, it only has a matching transformer so you can use RG-6 cable. You would need something like this 100FT F-f RG6 Patch Cable Blk Premium Retail Blister Pack plus a rotor and rotor wire, antenna amplifier, splitters if you have more than one TV, a tripod roof mount, two sections of steel mast, a grounding block, ground wire and a grounding rod or water pipe ground attachment.

They are RG 59 BNC connectors they are for security cameras! RG 6 connectors are for cable connections there is no RG 56! I hope this help you... I am a contractor

I sent that one back. Don't know the size but it does not have a coax cable input.

There's not really a maximum length, because the amplifier requires such a low amount of power. That said, there is a significant amount of loss of signal with long runs of coax. The amplifier is used at the antenna to beef up that signal to mitigate the loss. The closer the amplifier is to the antenna, the better. The power insertion module can be anywhere that is convenient. If you're doing an extremely long cable run, make sure you're using a low loss cable, such as RG6. The cheaper RG59 that is quite common is okay for short runs when using an amplifier, but the longer the distance, the more important it is to use low loss cable.

The small piece (the remote) has a 6 wire RJ-12 connector on one end and an 8 wire RJ-45 connector on the other. If you want to test BNC or coax cable, the included adapters are used for them.

You need to purchase the crimper for this style of end. I've made over 100 connections with this end and crimper and none of them have failed to make a great connection. I also have a cable tester specifically for RG5/6 cable that is used to test connections. Many of the connections were in-house coax that connected to Leviton face plates. So far, so good.

Rg8u or rg8x will work. I don't see why rg58u would not work.it is 50 ohm and can handle relatively high wattage. Also you might check on I think it is 213 or 218 coax. A lot of the radio operators here use it.

There is a connection at the antenna called a BALON I think. It convertes the 300 ohm from the antenna to 75 ohm. Then you can use a RG-6 coax cable from there. I did find that the transformer on the antenna didn't work. I put an external one on and it worked ok. Hope this helps you.

Yes, it comes with several coax RG6 cables, one will be used to power up the device. one end of a coax cable will plug into the device, the other end plugs into a small brick/cube power adapter, the power supply cord is a standard RG6 coax cable that plugs into power adapter that plugs into any outlet.What's nice about this is that you could use any RG6 coax cable to power up the device. You could make it as long or short as you want. The coax cable that came with the device was long enough for me, so I used it.

Hi. It has 300 ohm connection studs but the antenna is supplied with a 75 ohm matching transformer (balun). Therefore, you will just need coax with "F" connectors on each end. I recommend RG6. Hope this helps!

RG-213 performance is published online, comparing cable standards, frequency, and losses. See http://www.w4rp.com/ref/coax.html to name just one.
