500ft RG6 in house - Great for directv, dishnetwork, comcast, and most other cable providers.

Great value for cutting cable and replacing old RG59 cable
My friend's home had early 1980s unshielded RG59 cables in the walls. For over a decade she had problems with signal strength issues when they switch to high-speed cable internet in the early 2000s. Cable modem would routinely lose sync with the cable network. Cox cable only upgraded the cable leading up to the home. The cable tv and internet service was awful. I finally convinced her to cut the cable tv service and switch to an amplified roof antenna and just keep Cox for the internet service. With a friend's help, we feed the coaxial cable from the roof antenna into a coaxial 8 port distribution amp located in the attic and put in a drop into three bedrooms, family room, and living room. I ran another RG6 drop to where the old RG59 met the Cox cable to the modem. While we were at it, we also ran CAT6 drops into the same rooms from a giga-switch in the attic.The end result is that we have almost no coaxial signal loss throughout the home. Data is now wired gigabit and wireless AC (for tablets, iphones etc) with combination Coaxial and CAT 6 faceplates outlets into each room in the home. Every TV (5 in total) are fed both OTA TV channels and ethernet data to Amazon Fire TV boxes with streaming apps installed on them like Sony's Playstation Vue, Showtime Now, Hulu, and HBO Now streaming service for premium channels. The house can pick up an amazing 54 OTA channels compared to 28 channels with a normal thin amp'd window antenna and a ton of streaming channels over data cable. We calculated the breakeven for the cost of the cable, antenna, preamps, distribution amps, ethernet, routers, network switches will be three to four months. She has far more channels now than she did with COX and her total out of pocket cost will be 1/4th the cost she had been paying to COX and has better service.Needless to say, everyone is happy :)

Good for the price
Just installed about 250 feet of this cable at my aunts house, I replaced the old omnidirectional antenna and dicided to run new cable to her 3 TVs. Cable come in a reel and I use some connectors I already have. Since this cable is 3 shielded the conectores fit really easy, not like on the quad shield it replaced.I used a 4 port distribution amp to connect the TVs to the antenna, all TVs received all local channels(at least the most populars) except for ch 6,This cable just work fine, my only concern is how long it last under Puerto Rico weather.

Great quality RG6
Great quality RG6 coax cable.We replaced old RG6 and RG59 cable that was inducing noise and causing signal quality issues.See photos for comparison of the older (I'm assuming fairly cheap) RG6 and RG59 coax cable vs. this perfect flex coax cable. Noticeably better braiding and thicker shielding.

It Works!
I'm rewiring my 28 year old home (more like wiring) with Cat 6A Ethernet, Cat 5e phone, & RG-6 for TV in places it never had media outlets & a media closet. This works fine for TV & it was easy to install RG6 Compression Connectors on.Highly Recommended!

Good quality.
I replaced a couple of my coax runs with this cable and it works fine. It doesn't come in a "pull box" but I just placed the cable reel in the shipping box so the reel would turn as I pulled it and it fed out without tangling. Someone had installed one of our TV cables with RG59 rather than RG6, so I replaced it. I moved my office from one room to another and wanted to move the internet modem to it, so I ran this cable to it from the attic and everything worked fine.

Just like what the cable guy uses.
This a very good quality shielded cable. When I seen my cable guy use this for my Modem, I knew i needed it for the rest of my Television runs throughout my house. The white cable is easy to locate when fishing from the walls. Thumbs up on this!
