What kind of Coaxial cable does the cable company use?

Question

I'm drawing a blank...I think it's RG6...what I'm trying to figure out is what the most CURRENT type is used for improved bandwidth of phone, internet, and TV combined...I think a long time ago they used RG13 but I think I need a little refresher course...any takers?

Answer 1

rg6 quad shielded,  non aluminum, non zinc, copper.

Answer 2

RG-6 is NOW used by most cable TV companies as the drop line from the feeder line to your home. It is also the most common wire used inside the home to distribute cable within the home.

RG-59 was also used in some older installations but is being replaced as it has less loss especially at higher frequencies.

For your use RG-6
