What Is A Flooded Burial Coax Cable

Coaxial cables are used in a variety of applications, such as cable television cabling or antennas. For placement underground or near other wiring that can harbor interference, flooded burial coaxial cable is a smart choice.


Significance


The layers of a flooded burial coaxial cable give it the durability needed for the applications at hand. Beginning in the middle with the copper conductor, the layers extend out to include the insulator and two levels of braid and foil, which is surrounded by flooding compound and the outside cover.


Benefits


The sticky compound encompassing the cable underneath the cover allows small aberrations or cuts on the outside jacket to be rendered harmless to the cable.


Applications


Flooded burial coaxial cable is also used for large-scale security camera placement over a property. In addition, hotel complexes and mobile home communities benefit from being able to provide cable television, as well as security cameras, to an entire grouping of buildings through convenient burial of cabling.
