Low-loss, quad-shielded, 75
S coax for head end, drop
cable applications. As with most other Gepco coax prod-
ucts, head end cable utilizes a gas-injected dielectric
that reduces high frequency attenuation and
increases the velocity of propagation. Unique to
head end cable is a silver-plated, copper-clad
steel conductor which reduces the resistance
at the surface area of the conductor, further
lowering the high frequency attenuation of
the cable. To provide exceptional protec-
tion from stray RF and EMI, a dense
quad shield with dual 95% aluminum
braids is utilized.
