What size cable should be gotten, and does it depend on the lenght of the cable run.
1953079
As a rule of thumb (contrary to popular belief) RG59 CAN be used for lengths up to around 125'. RG6 can be used for lengths up to 200' and RG11 to lengths of 400'. These do assume a solid copper center conductor, and at least 60% braid on the shield to reduce the resistance in the wire (Ohms Law). The lower the quality of coax cable and connector - the shorter the run may be. The bottom line is that the LNB receive at least 13Volts for Odd Transponders, and ~15/16V for Even.

Standard RG6 coax is the normal cable for satellite and cable TV. Most is rated 70 ohm and swept tested to 2200Mhz. The stuff you can find on Amazon or your local big box store is going to work just fine. The maximum run is 200 ft for this type of dish before it has signal issues.

It will work and if you don't want to use the short cord you can use your owne cable. I bought a 6 foot cable.

you can buy a longer cable from other seller, because we only have 15m cable. The cable will be very cheap.

2 inches long, by 1 1/4 inches wide, by 1/2 inch thick. Remember, you will need a little "wiggle room" for the cable!

I ordered the cables per specifications but did not hookup and do not know the answer to the question.

I was told to use Cat&a; because you'll have more lenght (100m) but if I'm not wrong Cat6 "should maybe" works, if you don't know get Cat&a; because the price diffrence is not very high if you buy a bunch of cables.

about 6 feet. If you need longer then get the kit that is not pre-wired. Then you can use your own cable and run it as long as you want.

The manufacturer will ship a longer cable. Should you desire more info please contact me via email.

The length might work (best to measure) but buy a different cable, as this one is junk (not CAT5 inside)

Though it may be possible, the cable size on the unit is the size designed by the manufacturer. Using a size other than the one designed, may endanger the user and/or damage the unit.

Not sure which one your inquiring about. I purchased two different cable, one was a standard 3 foot length, purchased to have as travel backup in the event the longer one is left behind. The second was a 6.5 foot long one and that one is fantastic.

I don't quite understand your question but I think maybe your asking it wrong. A shorter cable would run more optimally than a longer cable another words, the shorter the cable, the better the signal. That said, if your looking for a long run of 50 ft. look on the specs for that cable check the gauge and signal drop across 50 ft. . Also check on YouTube for help. Hope this helps, Good Luck.

Yes. You will need a longer piece of cable. RG6 cable is recommended. the R59 cable is to thin.
