                  Q:Under Specifications, this cable is listed as for outdoors. But with the CM/CL2 (in-wall) classification, shouldn't this be listed as indoors as well? Please clarify. I noticed both the 100ft and 1000ft variants are listed as "indoors/outdoors".

                  Q:What the difference between quad and dual shield
                  by|Nov 20, 2019
                  1 Answer
                  Answer This Question

                  A:  A dual-shielded coax cable, for example, uses aluminum foil for the high-frequency shield and aluminum braid for the low-frequency shielding. Coax cables can also have additional shielding. A tri-shield cable has two foils and a braid, whereas a quad-shield cable employs two foils and two braids.
