Coax Cable

[munruss]

I need to run 100' of television coax cable. It's going from a splitter from the basement to the 2nd floor. Do you know of any decent online stores that sell this?

 

[Juno]

radio shack?

 

[BlueWeasel]

That should be pretty easy to find....any online store that sells coax or cables in buck would probably have it.

 

[rudeguy]

ebay is great place for bulk coax. Otherwise try Lowes/HOme Depot

Best Buy has Monster Coax...Don't worry that it costs a 'little' more...It will make your channel surfing faster since the cable signal will travel faster to your TV if you use it...

Youve got questions, we've got blank stares.

Maybe munruss's doesn't work though = I'm sad.

Home Depot has it.

For 100', you need high quality with shielding. Don't skimp or you will get static.

RG-6 Quad Shield is the way to go, along with compression connectors!

Can I use this? or this?

I'd check your local Home Improvemtne store first. Can get bulk stuff like that pretty cheap. Otherwise find an online cable place like trianglecables.com, cablesforless.com, etc. There's tons of places that will sell that.

Yep,.

 

[skyking]

sure, but it is somewhat of a ah heck to route with the ends on. You have to drill bigger holes, it snags, you have to protect the wire.
