West Penn Wire 810BK0500 RG8 Pvc Coaxial Cable

Product Description

The WEST PENN WIRE 810BK0500 is an RG8 coaxial cable with PVC jacketing, designed for signal transmission in low-loss RF and communication applications. RG8 is a standard 50-ohm coaxial cable used where reliable shielded signal runs are required. The PVC outer jacket provides flexibility and resistance to abrasion and moisture in typical indoor and light commercial environments. This cable is sold as a single unit and is installed by electricians, low-voltage technicians, and communications contractors working on antenna, RF, or signal distribution systems.

The 810BK0500 suits applications that require a shielded coaxial run to minimize interference and signal degradation. Typical use cases include antenna feed lines, RF equipment connections, and communication system wiring in residential and commercial facilities. The shielded construction helps reject electromagnetic interference along the cable run, making it appropriate for environments with moderate electrical noise.

Key Features

• RG8 coaxial construction with 50-ohm characteristic impedance standard
• PVC jacket offers flexibility and basic environmental protection
• Shielded design reduces electromagnetic interference on signal lines
• Sold as a single unit for straightforward ordering
• Suitable for RF, antenna, and low-voltage communication wiring

Compatibility

Designed as a standard RG8 PVC coaxial cable for use with RF connectors, antenna systems, and communication equipment requiring a shielded 50-ohm coaxial feed line.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed low-voltage technicians or electricians following applicable NEC guidelines for communication and coaxial wiring. De-energize connected equipment before terminating cable ends. Use appropriate RG8-rated connectors and crimping or compression tools to ensure a proper termination and avoid signal loss. Avoid sharp bends that exceed the minimum bend radius of the cable.
