RG 6 A/U Marine ARM MUD

RG 6 A/U Marine ARM MUD

Variant:
Robust long life coaxial cable designed for ship- and offshore environments. Electrical data in compliance with MIL C-17. Steel braid armour meets requirements of EMC shield and the triple shielded cable has better screen effiency than standard RG products.
RG 6 A/U must not be confused with RG 6, which is a simple CATV cable.
