About
- “RG” refers to “Radio Guide”, originally a unit indicator for bulk RF cable in the U.S. military’s Joint Electronics Type Designation System.
Usage:
- RG11 Coaxial Cables are used for Wide Broadband with far signal transmission distance, often used as a main cable line in transmitting observing camera data, Cable Television, etc.
Difference Between RG6 and RG11
- RG11 is better at preserving signal quality than the RG6
- RG11 is able to work at much higher frequencies than the RG6
- RG11 costs more than RG6
- RG11 is twice as thick as RG6
- RG11 is not as flexible as RG6
- We can use RG11 to replace RG6
