TECHIES.......I need to BOOST my fucking CABLE COAX lines as much as possible... - GoFuckYourself.com

Juicy D. Links · 10-25-2005, 10:24 PM

I have the motoroal boosters 2 of em. On at entyr point and one at before the pc.

Any other solution other than running beefier cables?

KMR Stitch · 10-25-2005, 10:26 PM

Only way to really boost is 1 work at your ISP or 2 the shit outside they have locked ;-)

you need to have quad shield rg59 throughout your house with no splitters except for the main one coming into the house. make sure all connectors are crimped not twist ons

What are you trying to accomplish?

If anything to do with CATV, opt for RG-6 (RG-56) over RG-59. May cost a bit more and it's a bitch getting through pvc conduit, but the electrical characteristics are way superior, particularly on long runs.

thanks man , basically I am looking for something that will lose the least signal and shit.

RobbieRye · 10-26-2005, 07:56 AM

Is this for T.V. or for the Internet?

Internet..........

Does this mean I have to call the cablevision dipshits and have em run neww lines from the poles?

Juicy D. Links · 10-26-2005, 08:00 AM

I dont think it would be legal for me to get a ladder and run my own wires off the main poles lolllllllll

Just go out there and rip it off your house and tell them a monster truck drove down the street and tore your lines down..

Then they will replace it for free

Baal · 10-26-2005, 08:10 AM

"Monster Cables" for your CAT-5 connection? How 80's.

Go optical. Speed of light... and beyond!
Now *that's* JUICY

Why not, that's what i do with my electric.

Marcus Aurelius · 10-26-2005, 09:25 AM

I posted in your other thread to izzy last night. RG-59 is not a good idea for new cable systems. rg-6 is the way to go, and if your fiending for the lowest DB loss go for RG-11 cable (overkill)

Marcus Aurelius · 10-26-2005, 09:33 AM

I used to work for charter and then as a prewire consultant for several builders and I'll tell anyone even thinking of using RG-59 that when the cable company attempts to install digital services or web services they will want to replace it with RG-6. If you are looking to get the best signal possible without getting yourself in trouble call your cable company and have them add their wire maintenance plan (if available) to your service. Once you have wire maintenance in place cut the drop outside so that water can get into the line, just slice the shielding about 6 feet up from the junction point to the house, pour some water on it if you have too.

Water in a line is an automatic replacement and that far up they will have to replace the complete drop. Ask the tech that comes to please run RG-11 line to your junction point because you want the lowest amount of signal loss possible, then you have RG-11 from the tap to the junction, and RG-6 to your outlets, you will be blazing DB's.

and never use a surge suppressor on your interior cable lines. The ones that you see built into outlets and power strips will kill your DB level faster than anything. If properly installed the system is surge protected and grounded outside so no need to worry about that end of it.

rickholio · 10-26-2005, 10:07 PM

Mein gott... rg11 internal? That stuff is thick and bitch tough to work with indoors. Unless you're running cable for hundreds of yards next to some sort of industrial equipment, you're not going to need it, honestly. You're only going to get maybe 0.5dB less attenutation per hundred feet anyways... if your signal is so marginal as to need that extra 0.5dB, then the problem really lies within the cable co and they need to get off their asses to fix it.

From pole to distro though, rg11 would probably be nice, if a bit heavy.
