is this cable made of solid or stranded wires

Sorry, but I don't know. I do know that I'm very happy with it's performance, but that's really all I can say..

It is standard HDMI cable. As far as I understand the construction it is straight wired from the source to the receiver when plugged in.

There are several differences between the 2 and I will list the a few. 1.Stranded wire is used in the situations where need a great deal of flexibility, while solid wire should be used when strength and rigidity is required. 2.Solid wire is much cheaper compared with stranded wire. Stranded wire is made of multiple strands of wire and solid wire is made of just one wire.

The cable is some kind of rope, may be nylon, but it did not look like nylon.

Hi Thomas, I think it is copper. In any case the cable works well over a 100 feet in my case. The cable is buried and a lot of run off passes over the area where the cable is buried. I guess the real answer is that for me, it has worked well as an outside cable which is more than I can say for conventional cable buried in conduit.

Have had it running from my house to the garage for over a year now and all good. Some of it's buried but the majority of it is stapled to my fence and have had no connectivity problems with it. It's made for outdoors, so you've selected the right cable.

It's been several years since I installed my kit, so I don't remember what the wire looks like. I remember that when I bought them, the seller said the wires were aluminum coated copper. Although I don't have any way to verify. That being said, it is a quality set of cables, powering a 1200 watt 2-channel with no issues since installation 3+ years ago.

Yes, the ground wire is solid core. You don't really need a stranded wire for this application. The main factor in any use of wire in the ground is the insulation factor. You need to make sure and not scrape off any insulation while placing in the ground and if going under a graveled area, or anywhere a vehicle packs down the dirt or gravel, run it thru plastic conduit.This will keep the insulation and or wire from breaking and save some headaches.

Nope. I think it is rubber, but it is flat not round like any other cable. Hope it helps.

Solid is what is needed to terminate network cable onto jacks and patch panels. We have never used stranded network wire in over 20 years of installs. We do use stranded for speaker, alarm, cctv, access control where we are screwing wires down to terminals or using wire nuts. You will use solid for all structured cabling in commercial or home applications

its solid but 8 wire this is cad 5 wire for networking and or for phones. each wire is solid. I used it and worked well for my networking needs

Probably not; it is all just rubber coated. I cut the cable end to wire into electrical box (has a strange end plug). It has three rubber coated wires: black, white, green. These were surrounded by just the black rubber outside.

I used one of these in a home built tobacco kiln. The cable is quite long already, but if I recall, it's just a two conductor stranded cable, maybe 20 gauge, like cheap speaker wire. I didn't crack the housing open to see if the end is easily detachable, but you could probably just splice it right in the middle if you need to add length.

It's basically a straight cable, not like the coiler cables that snap back to a coil when released. It's a good heavy cable with a good coating on it to protect things you put it on. George

Stranded wires are made up of small strands of wire, while solid wire is made from a single strand of wire. Stranded wire is more flexible than single strand wire. Stranded wire can be moved over and over. Solid core will tend to break if it is moved repeatedly. In hook up wire, there is almost no difference in the current carrying ability between stranded and non stranded. In larger wires it can. Think of it this way: an an extension cord is made from stranded wire, whereas the wire used in building construction is single strand. Extension cards can be easily moved. You wouldn't move the wire in the wall of a house.

Its a standard USB cable and will work...very well made with a decent price

No, the cable is not stiff enough to hold a shape and will not hold a coiling the shape on its own as shown in the picture. It is rubber, not wire. Hope that helps.
