Bulk RG6 coaxial cable on 1000 ft wooden reels and reel-in-box for CATV, satellite, MoCA and CCTV drops. 18 AWG bare copper center conductor (not copper-clad steel), gas-injected foam PE dielectric, 75 ohm, swept to 3 GHz. Dual shield is aluminum foil plus 60 percent aluminum braid, the standard for cable and antenna; quad shield adds a second foil and braid for satellite, high-RF environments and long runs. UL Listed CM, RoHS, sequential footage marks.
| Construction | Shielding | Use | Colors |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dual shield | Foil + 60% braid | CATV, OTA antenna, MoCA, CCTV, in-wall runs to 150 ft | Black, white, gray, beige, orange, purple, blue |

Reel vs reel-in-box: the wooden reel pays out on a jack stand for long pulls and truck stock; reel-in-box stands on the floor and pays out through the box for single-tech installs and attic work. Same cable, same price class.
Connectors: RG6 F compression and push-on; splitters and amplifiers: coax splitters and satellite distribution; plates: coax wall plates. Guide: jacket ratings and where CM, CMR and CMP are required. Installer and reel pricing.
Conversions Tech® RG6 Coax Cable FAQ
(Dual-Shield & Quad-Shield)
Tap a question to expand the answer and learn why our 3 GHz RG6 75 Ω Dual- & Quad-Shield cables beat AmazonBasics, Cable Matters, Belden and other brands for satellite, DOCSIS 3.1, MoCA 2.5 and 4 K / 8 K TV.
1. What specs do Conversions Tech coax cables meet?
We manufacture both RG6 Dual-Shield (60 % aluminum braid +
bonded foil) and RG6 Quad-Shield (60 % braid, foil +
40 % braid, foil) on an 18 AWG copper-clad-steel conductor.
All variants are UL CL2/FT4 in-wall, sweep-tested to 3 GHz and retain
a true 75 Ω impedance from 5 MHz – 3 GHz.
2. When should I pick Dual-Shield versus Quad-Shield?
Dual-Shield is lighter and ideal for low-EMI indoor runs up
to 150 ft (most cable/internet installs).
Quad-Shield adds >30 dB of RF rejection—perfect for
high-EMI ceilings, outdoor dish lines, MoCA 2.5 LANs and congested
5 G/LTE neighborhoods.
3. Are both shield types 4 K / 8 K ready?
Yes—both are sweep-verified to 3 GHz, covering the full spectrum used by
4 K & 8 K cable, satellite and DOCSIS 3.1 services (up to 1.2 GHz).
4. Conversions Tech vs. AmazonBasics RG6 Dual-Shield?
AmazonBasics tops out at 2.2 GHz and lacks quad-shield.
Our Dual-Shield hits 3 GHz, uses tougher UV-rated PVC, and
ships with factory compression F-connectors—plus a lifetime warranty.
5. Conversions Tech Quad-Shield vs. Cable Matters Quad-Shield?
Cable Matters meets 3 GHz but only CL2.
Conversions Tech adds FT4 riser rating, pre-installed PPC-style
connectors and next-day replacement at no extra cost.
6. How do you compare with Belden 1189A commercial grade?
We match Belden’s 95 %+ total shield coverage and 0.18 dB/100 ft loss
(1 GHz). Conversions Tech costs ~30 % less for residential rolls while
including factory connectors.
7. Are the cables UL listed and CL2/FT4 in-wall rated?
Absolutely—every length bears our UL E-file number for CL2 horizontal and
FT4 riser installations.
8. What does “sweep-tested to 3 GHz” mean?
Each batch is vector-network-analyzed from 5 MHz to 3 GHz to confirm
<0.29 dB/100 ft insertion loss (3 GHz) and return loss >18 dB—
guaranteeing DOCSIS 3.1, MoCA 2.5 and LNB control-tone integrity.
9. What connector style is pre-installed?
Universal compression F-type with 360° polymer sleeve and
captive O-ring—rated IPX8 for outdoor wall-plates and dish LNBs.
10. Can I bury either version outdoors?
Use our Direct-Bury jacket (flooded gel) for underground runs.
Standard PVC Dual/Quad jackets are UV-safe but not water-blocking.
11. How effective is Quad-Shield against 5 G/LTE interference?
Quad-Shield provides ≥120 dB shielding effectiveness—over 30 dB better
than dual-shield—blocking LTE ingress that degrades upstream DOCSIS.
12. Is the jacket RoHS-3 & REACH compliant?
Yes—lead-free PVC and halogen-free foils braids meet RoHS-3 and REACH SVHC.
13. What lengths do you offer?
Pre-made patch cables: 3 ft – 150 ft (Dual & Quad).
Bulk reels: 500 ft & 1 000 ft (Dual or Quad) with 25 free compression connectors.
Bulk reels: 500 ft & 1 000 ft (Dual or Quad) with 25 free compression connectors.
14. Minimum bend radius?
3 in / 7.5 cm to preserve 75 Ω impedance and foil integrity.
15. Center conductor—solid copper or copper-clad steel?
RG6 uses copper-clad steel (CCS) for tensile strength with negligible
RF loss above 5 MHz. Solid-copper RG11 available for ultra-long runs.
16. Do both shields support MoCA 2.5 networking?
Yes—return loss >18 dB at 1.6 GHz ensures MoCA 2.5 hits its full
2.5 Gb/s data rate on Dual- or Quad-Shield.
17. DOCSIS 3.1 upload speeds—any difference Dual vs Quad?
Dual-Shield is fine for <150 ft indoor modem feeds. Quad-Shield
maximizes SNR in EMI-dense apartments & drop-amp backbones,
reducing packet re-transmits.
18. Satellite-ready for DirecTV SWM & DISH Hopper?
Both shield types handle full 950–2150 MHz + 2.4 GHz control channels;
Quad-Shield is recommended for long outdoor lines to an LNB.
19. Insertion & return-loss figures?
• 0.18 dB/100 ft @ 1 GHz (Dual & Quad)
• 0.28 dB/100 ft @ 3 GHz (Quad)
Return loss ≥ 20 dB to 1.5 GHz, ≥ 18 dB to 3 GHz.
• 0.28 dB/100 ft @ 3 GHz (Quad)
Return loss ≥ 20 dB to 1.5 GHz, ≥ 18 dB to 3 GHz.
20. Operating temperature range?
−40 °C → +80 °C (−40 °F → 176 °F) continuous; polyethylene dielectric
resists cold-flow and jacket shrink-back.
21. Do you offer installer or trade discounts?
Yes—apply to our CT Pro Channel for tiered wholesale
pricing, free connector packs and quarterly rebates.
22. Eco-friendly packaging?
100 % recyclable cartons with soy-ink; bulk reels are kiln-dried pine with
zero plastic shrink-wrap.
23. Warranty coverage?
Lifetime replacement—register within 30 days; we cross-ship replacements
next business day.
24. Where to buy genuine Conversions Tech coax?
Direct at conversionstech.com, Amazon (Sold by Conversions Tech),
Graybar, WESCO and other authorized distributors.
25. Power-over-Coax for security cameras?
Yes—both shields support 48 V DC up to 1 A with <1 V drop over 150 ft;
Quad-Shield further reduces EMI on PoC lines.
26. Can I run Ethernet over coax (EoC) on your Dual-Shield?
Yes—MoCA 2.0/2.5 adapters deliver >1 Gb/s on Dual-Shield up to 150 ft;
Quad-Shield gives extra headroom for multiple adapters & longer hops.
27. How can I spot a counterfeit Conversions Tech coax?
Genuine cable shows a laser batch code every 2 ft; verify at
conversionstech.com/verify. Missing/blurred codes indicate counterfeit.
28. Do you sell RG11 for long backbone runs?
Yes—CL2-rated RG11 (14 AWG solid copper, 3 GHz) in Dual- & Quad-Shield
with matching compression F and mini-hardline fittings.
29. Will Quad-Shield improve upstream DOCSIS 4.0?
Absolutely—enhanced screening reduces LTE ingress that can cause upstream
noise bursts on high-split DOCSIS 4.0 (204 MHz & 684 MHz splits).
30. Do both cables support power-inserter blocks for amplified TVs?
Yes—low DC resistance & continuous copper plating support 12–24 V
amplifier feeds without voltage sag, even on Dual-Shield.
