Are you using this cable internally? If so, you can make your own with screw on f-plugs. Use good cable.

Can you recomend a good cable for a run from downstairs to upstairs say 15 to 20M Thanks

Hi webro wf100 cable is good quality german manufacturer about 65p per meter also at the top quality is the ultimate digi cable about 1.29 per meter ,compression connectors are good ,You need a compression tool to fit them, screw type f connectors are fine ,you can fit them yourself but use self amalgamating tape to waterproof them. you can have them made up to your required lengths at good sat dealers

See here for cable. The 100 range is at the better end of teh spectrum. I believe VM now use RG6 for internal runs owing to cost.

@all we need to keep this thread clean

After you answer, maybe people can offer you something. The external cable is different to the internal one although you can use the same cable. The external one is a bit more rugged and has a gooey substance.

I ordered the Webro HD100 which is triple shield I will let you know how it works out cheap cable is not fit for purpose signal degrades too much (20m run)
