Genesis Cable 50075508 RG6 Quad Shield Catv Cable

Product Description

The GENESIS CABLE 50075508 is a quad-shielded RG6 coaxial cable designed for CATV signal distribution in residential and light commercial installations. The conductor is copper-clad steel (CCS), which provides the structural rigidity needed for longer runs while maintaining adequate signal conductivity for standard cable television frequencies. Quad shielding — typically two layers of foil and two layers of braid — delivers significantly higher shielding effectiveness than dual-shield RG6, reducing ingress and egress interference. This cable is sold in a 500-foot box and is black in color, suited for indoor or outdoor routing depending on the jacket rating.

This cable is used in CATV, satellite, and broadband distribution systems where improved shielding is required to meet signal integrity standards. It is a common choice for drops from a tap or splitter to a set-top box, modem, or television outlet. Installers working MDU properties, new construction, or service upgrades typically specify quad-shield RG6 to comply with cable operator or system integrator requirements for shielding performance.

Key Features

• Quad-shield construction reduces signal ingress and egress interference
• Copper-clad steel center conductor provides pull strength for long runs
• RG6 form factor is compatible with standard F-type fittings and compression connectors
• 500-foot box packaging suits full drop installations without mid-run splices
• Black jacket blends with typical wall and conduit installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation coaxial cable for residential and commercial CATV, satellite, and broadband signal distribution systems requiring quad-shield RG6 specification.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage or CATV technician in accordance with applicable local codes and cable operator requirements. Use only compatible compression-style F-type connectors rated for quad-shield RG6 to ensure a weatherproof, low-loss termination. Avoid sharp bends below the cable minimum bend radius, which can degrade shielding integrity. When routing outdoors or through exterior walls, verify the jacket rating is appropriate for direct burial or UV exposure before installation.
