Semi-Finished Coaxial Cable – RG6 CCS/48/AL
1.Structural Composition
| Layer | Material | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Inner Conductor： | Copper-Clad Steel (CCS) | Ø 1.02 ± 0.02 mm – Combines conductivity and tensile strength |
| Bonding Layer： | Polymer Film (optional) | Enhances adhesion with dielectric, improves durability |
| Dielectric： | Foamed Polyethylene (FPE) | Ø 4.60 ± 0.10 mm – Ensures 75Ω impedance and consistent signal flow |
| Shielding (Braid)： | 48 x 0.12 mm Aluminum wires | ~35–40% coverage – Basic EMI protection for non-critical environments |
| Outer Jacket： | PVC or PE (black or white) | Ø 6.8 ± 0.10 mm – UV-resistant, flexible for easy installation |
2. Electrical Performance (Typical)
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Characteristic Impedance： | 75 ± 3 ohms |
| Capacitance： | ≤ 67 pF/m |
| Return Loss (5–1000 MHz)： | ≥ 18–20 dB |
| Attenuation @ 100 MHz： | ≤ 6.0 dB/100m |
| Attenuation @ 800 MHz： | ≤ 17.5 dB/100m |
3. Mechanical Characteristics
Strength: CCS core offers solid tensile resistance for pull-throughs
Weight: Very lightweight due to AL braid and CCS core
Flexibility: Good for indoor installations
Temperature Range: -20°C to +70°C (PVC), up to +85°C (PE)
Minimum Bending Radius: ≥ 68 mm (10 × OD)
4. Applications
Entry-level CCTV camera systems
Analog TV and low-frequency CATV networks
Cost-controlled indoor RF installations in residential settings
Temporary setups or non-critical signal paths
