There is no such thing as sky cable it is a marketing ploy to charge extra for good quality satellite cable.
Is satellite cable the same as tv aerial cable.
Yes it will work the satellite cable is better quality than standard coax but will still carry the tv signal 2011 10 09t23 30 02 01 00 answered 9th oct 2011.
However for satellite use there is one extra consideration can you actually terminate the cable.
All you need between the lnb on your dish and any receiving equipment is good quality satllite coaxial cable not standard uhf tv cable.
Take a look at splitters that let you hook up two screens to the same antennae.
I replaced my internal ariel cables with this superior coax cable it was a type ct100 when i replaced mine.
Webro wf100 is the cable i use for all of smart aerials tv aerial installations.
Can you use the same cable for satellite dish and loft aerial.
Connect up your television and get ready to watch your favourite shows with our tv aerial cables and accessories.
Wf100 is a foam filled coaxial cable with all copper conductors so solid copper centre conductor copper braid and copper shield.
I need to move my tv and the satellite cable is not long enough but i do have some aerial coax can i just put the satellite plugs on the other coax cable.
Sorry for being a dullard here but can anyone tell me if there is a difference between what is sold as satellite cable and ordinary aerial coaxial cable.
I would hazard a guess that if the cable comes from a dish already and assuming isnt damaged in anyway that it is adequate.
Satellite cable will work just fine with tv aerials too if you still have some left over or can get it cheap.
Longer cables let you position the screen on a tv bracket and reach the socket with ease.
It is the same type of cable but the quality of the cable varies widly.
Although i will occasionally use a shotgun cable for satellite over short distances webro wf100 is undoubtedly the preferred option.
