Frequently Asked Questions About CCTV Coax Cable:

What is RG-59/U CCTV Coax Cable?

RG-59/U and RG-6/U for CCTV is the most common coax cable used for low power video applications such as surveillance CCTV, and home theater HDTV video. Rg-59/U has some distance limitation so we recommend that for any video runs over 750ft you should switch to RG-6/U for CCTV which is a thicker gauge cable and will carry the signal a much farther distance. Make sure you understand that there is RG-6 for CCTV and RG-6 for CATV (cable television coax). Never use CATV coax cable for a CCTV application. For surveillance video applications RG-59/U comes in 1000ft and 500ft boxes or spools, and can be bought as a single cable or as a Siamese cable.

What is a Siamese Cable for CCTV?

A Siamese Cable for CCTV is an RG-59/U and an 18/2 power cable all in one cable. The Siamese cable for CCTV has both the RG-59/U and an 18/2 power cable stuck together side by side and they are easy to separate by just pulling them apart. The RG-59/U is used for your video and then you can use the 18/2 cable to power up your camera. In a CCTV application one end of your coax cable will plug into the camera and the other end will connect to your DVR or video viewing device, both via a BNC connector. As for the 18/2 power cable one end will go into your camera and the other end will go directly into a power source to give power to the camera. Siamese CCTV cable is the most commonly used cable used to connect all your CCTV equipment together.

Does a 95% Copper Braid Matter?

Yes it does 100%. The quality of your coax cable is a key to the success of your CCTV security project. There are a few types of cables called RG-59. Copper vs. Aluminum sheet and 75% braid vs. 95% braid. For CCTV system installations, you should always use cable that is marked 95% Copper Braid. Aluminum shielding and Copper Clad Steel is made with cheaper materials but are very poor in preventing interference. The 95% copper braided cable is more expensive but worth the extra expense, especially if you want a clear clean video signal. All RG-59/U and Siamese CCTV cables offered by CableGiant has a 95% Bare Copper Braid and is 3.0 GHz tested. You are guaranteed only the highest quality cables you need for a successful CCTV installation.

Should I run separate cables or should I use Siamese Cable for my CCTV runs?

It is 100% your personal preference. Many installers like to run one convenient Siamese CCTV Cable and others like to run separate cables. If you are installing your power supply and DVR equipment in one central place we recommend using the Siamese CCTV cable. Once you pull your cable run the Siamese cable is easy to pull apart so you can run the 18/2 into your central power supply and then the RG-59/U into your DVR. If you have your power supply in a separate place such as close to the camera or at an entirely separate location then running two individual cable is the best solutions for you.

Should my CCTV Coax Cable be CMR Rated?

A Riser Rating (CMR) is commonly required when cables are run between floors through open vertical shafts. At CableGiant all of our CCTV coax cables are both UL and CMR rated. So you can be sure you will not have any issues with building codes, running the wrong cable, or quality issues with the cable. If you are installing your CCTV coax cable in a plenum ceiling than you will need CMP or Plenum rated coax cable. The plenum rated CCTV cable is manufactured and rated to pass stringent burn testing and is suitable for installation into air plenum spaces. The bottom line is if your CCTV coax cable has no rating on the jacket most likely it is made with inferior materials, may not pass building codes, and you are sure to have poor performance results.
