Does this work with RG-6 cable?

It is for multi strand phone cable.... so it will not work with shielded coax.

It works with a 4 wire, 6 wire, and 8 wire connector. It is still a RJ45 connector for either one, internally the wire's are configured differently. The tool should terminate both. Check this link out. http://www.accesscomms.com.au/reference/cat5&6plugcomparison.htm

It will work over cat-6. The main difference between the two is there is an isolator in cat-6 that reduces crosstalk between the lines, so you get a cleaner signal. I have used my repeater system for years now and it is seamless. Hope this helps!

RG6 would be better, especially if you have a long distance from your antenna to your TV. Shorter distance should be ok with RG59.

I have no idea. I called my cable company and asked them if this item would work with what I had with them. And they said yes.

Any RG 6 coaxial cable will be fine; use quad shield if subject to electrical interferrence. Antenna has built - in matching circuitry so the cable hooks up directly to an F connector on the antenna, no need for a matching transformer.

This is just the antenna. If you base mount will accept the cable connector I don't see why not.. RG-8 is 50 ohms.

I have the same problem with similar connectors on Lowe's RCA-brand outdoor RG-6Q cable. Those cables are a little thicker than other outdoor cables. I went through about 10 compression connectors before coming here to Amazon to look for ones that might fit better. I'll also check out the YouTube videos, as suggested, even though I've not had problems crimping regular RG-6 cable before.

Haven't used it yet. Hopefully it does because I bought it for cat6 cables Good luck!

I used it with Cat6 and it worked great. I believe that all Cat 5-7 use the standard RJ45 connector so to answer your questions these should fit your cable.

RG 59 to my understanding is an older cable. I would think it would work for this purpose. I used RG 6 andIt works great. If you have ends on it just try it out on temporary basis. I bought the right length at Home Depot

No you will need to get a standard RG-6 cable which are commonly available in 50 and 100 ft lengths at places like Home Depot, Lowes, Radio Shack, Amazon, etc

no, but if your old rg 59 fitting needs replacing for any reason you can't use rg-6 fittings on the rg-59 cable. go to radio shack and pick them up. I have a 1990 airstream with the old size cable. It worked fine but my fitting was messed up. Also you will have to change the booster inside the trailer. It's tuned to the old antenna and it will need to be replaced with the new one.

Yes, but if you want even less loss, use RG6 as I did. You might as well get the best bang for the buck if your running cable. You will need specific RG6 connectors for the ends of the cable.

Unless you can't install or replace with RG6, I wouldn't use RG59 for anything other than OTA antenna. RG6 has 18AWG copper wire while RG59 has a thinner wire, so for cable TV and/or TV/internet/internet streaming, I would avoid RG59 to avoid a potential weak link if you had to trouble shoot your home network.

The unit doesn't have an input for coaxial cable (RG5, RG6), maybe you can do it through an RCA input but I haven't tried it.

This antenna comes with 50' of RG6 coaxial cable. It has F connectors at each end plus an F to BNC adapter. Hope that answers your question!
