FIVE STAR Cable 500 ft. RG59 Siamese CCTV Combo Coaxial Cable - 20AWG RG59 Video + 18/2 18AWG Power for Surviellance Security System (500 Ft, White)

I needed to run additional security cameras. Being able to run custom lengths of cable is a must for a quality project done right. You will need to purchase the proper connectors and crimping tool for your applicatioins.

This product was really great value for money, and has improved our security system

looks good I like it.

So far so good!

I have been dealing with cctv for years. For my own system I had purchased Sewell direct bury siamese rg59. It very well for 5 years. Then, 2 weeks ago one of my cameras stopped transmitting video. After extensive troubleshooting, I found that the cable itself had lost its conductivity over a 165 ft run. Using accepted devices, the cable would not “tone out”.After removing the cable from its route, the cable jacket was and the conductor was cut to investigate the cause. A powdery substance appearing to be oxidation on the braided part of the cable was present. Since there was no physical change to the cable while installed such as vandalism or accidental severing, I concluded the substance from the oxidation had created a fault that opened the circuit which prevented the video feed.I realize that to remain competitive companies are using different strategies to cut manufacturing costs. But replacing cabling is a taxing and costly process.I hope the copper clad aluminum magnesium construction of this wire provides a long service life. We shall see.

I like that the cable is very soft. Easy to work with. Good shielding.

easily snags and exterior insulation tears

Worked fine and was cheap enough. It’s not actual copper wire but it’s fine for my application of short wire runs
