What is the maximum distance for a coaxial cable?

The Analog connection The connection between the camera and the DVR is most often done using coaxial cable (75 ohms). Connectivity is done with BNC connectors (welded, crimped or screwed). In general, the maximum distance is 200 meters with KX6 coaxial cable and 500 meters with KX8 coaxial cable.

Does the length of coaxial cable affect signal?

The difference of signal losses over coax cable length can be very problematic in large TV systems and long cable runs as you have to consider signal losses at different frequencies on the same cable. Over distance this can cause the higher frequency signals to become weaker in relation to the lower frequency signals.

What is the maximum distance from satellite dish to receiver?

Use quad shield coax for best results and look for a good brand. As for the distance it all depends on how you run your cable. Without an amplifier then anywhere between 45-100m depending on the installation and cable used.

What is the frequency range of coaxial cable?

For typical coaxial cables, the shield cutoff frequency is 600 (RG-6A) to 2,000 Hz (RG-58C). Attenuation (loss) per unit length, in decibels per meter.

How long should a satellite dish cable be?

The simple answer is that with the standard RG6 3.0Ghz with a solid copper center conductor cable like we normally use and ship with our systems, we’ve gone up to 220 feet between the satellite dish and the modem, however, a max of 150 feet is recommended!

What is the upper limit of frequency up to which a coaxial cable can be used?

The drawing below shows all the transmission lines used in RF, from KHz to GHz, the coaxial cable line is the most used and most cost-effective, it can be used by up to 110 GHz with the current technology.
