Is Satellite Cable The Same As Tv Aerial Cable

It is the same type of cable but the quality of the cable varies widly.

Is satellite cable the same as tv aerial cable.

However for satellite use there is one extra consideration can you actually terminate the cable. Take a look at splitters that let you hook up two screens to the same antennae. I replaced my internal ariel cables with this superior coax cable it was a type ct100 when i replaced mine. Seems to me they are pretty much the same thing scratch.

The old tv plug would fit on any old bit of coax and i have for a short patch lead used 50 ohm cable however with the plugs and sockets used for satellite if wrong cable is used you can t get the plugs to fit on the cable. Connect up your television and get ready to watch your favourite shows with our tv aerial cables and accessories. Longer cables let you position the screen on a tv bracket and reach the socket with ease. There is no such thing as sky cable it is a marketing ploy to charge extra for good quality satellite cable.

All you need between the lnb on your dish and any receiving equipment is good quality satllite coaxial cable not standard uhf tv cable. Wf100 is a foam filled coaxial cable with all copper conductors so solid copper centre conductor copper braid and copper shield. Sorry for being a dullard here but can anyone tell me if there is a difference between what is sold as satellite cable and ordinary aerial coaxial cable. I would hazard a guess that if the cable comes from a dish already and assuming isnt damaged in anyway that it is adequate.

I use either ct100 of rg6 as a minimum but you can get lower loss cables at greater expense. Although i will occasionally use a shotgun cable for satellite over short distances webro wf100 is undoubtedly the preferred option. Can you use the same cable for satellite dish and loft aerial. Yes it will work the satellite cable is better quality than standard coax but will still carry the tv signal 2011 10 09t23 30 02 01 00 answered 9th oct 2011.
