West Penn Wire 6310BK1000 RG6 Quad-shield Coax Cable

Product Description

The WEST PENN WIRE 6310BK1000 is a quad-shield RG6 coaxial cable rated at 18 AWG, designed for low-loss signal transmission in professional audio, video, and data distribution systems. Quad shielding provides four layers of protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI), making it well suited for installations in electrically noisy environments. This cable ships in a 1000-foot run, giving installers a full reel for larger projects. It is the go-to choice for contractors and AV integrators who need reliable, consistent shielding performance across long cable runs.

This cable is used in residential and commercial installations where signal integrity is critical. Typical applications include satellite dish wiring, cable television distribution, security camera systems, and structured wiring panels. The 1000-foot length is standard for new construction rough-in work, retrofits, and multi-unit residential projects. AV technicians, low-voltage contractors, and systems integrators are the primary installers of this cable type.

Key Features

• Quad-shield construction provides four layers of EMI and RFI protection
• 18 AWG center conductor for low signal attenuation over long runs
• RG6 form factor compatible with standard F-type and compression connectors
• Black jacket finish suited for both indoor and typical low-voltage enclosure routing
• 1000-foot reel length minimizes splices on large-scale installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style drop-in replacement and new-installation coaxial cable for residential and commercial low-voltage signal distribution systems using standard RG6 termination hardware.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage contractor or qualified AV integrator in accordance with applicable NEC Article 820 requirements for coaxial cable. Avoid sharp bends that exceed the minimum bend radius, as kinking the cable will degrade shielding and signal quality. Use compression-style F-connectors and a proper coax compression tool to ensure a weatherproof, low-loss termination. Keep coaxial cable runs separated from AC power wiring to reduce induced interference.
