Best Answer

RF cables can fail due to factors such as physical damage, poor connections or corrosion, manufacturing defects, or wear and tear over time. These issues can result in signal loss, poor transmission quality, or complete signal failure. Regular maintenance and proper handling of the cables can help prevent these failures.

What is a cable rf bypass?

An RF bypass is a small box fitted to the back on a cable decoder box. It's function is to 'strip off' the Analogue TV channels from the cable feed & provide them to your TV as with a normal airial. It is only available in cable areas that still broadcast analogue programme's & not every cable decoder will be fitted to them. (ex cable engineer)

What is a RF cable?

In general, RF (for radio frequency) cable is used for the transmission or "linking" (coupling) of equipments, components, stages within components or anything like that where a high frequency signal (an RF signal) needs to be "routed" from one "thing" to another. Your TV cable is just one of the many, many applications of RF cable. Another might be connecting an RF transmitter to an antenna, or an antenna to an RF receiver. The term "RF cable" is a very general one, and there are lots and lots of different types of RF cable. The cable may be the coaxial type (coax), which is most common, and that's like the little cable you screw on the back of your TV to connect it to a cable service or maybe it's the cable connected to the cable box itself to bring the signal from the cable company aboard. There are other types of RF cable, too. Twinaxial (twinax) has a pair of "center" conductors and it might be used to connect data hubs. Heliaxial (heliax) might be used between a radio transmitter and an antenna. There are more, and lots of different "flavors" or characteric impedances, of them. Loss in cables is high, even for "good quality" cable, and thought must be given to cable application and to making up the cables. Long runs of cable are not good news for designers. The distributed R, L and C, and particularly the C (capacitance) will "suck the signal" out of the line. The capacitance actually acts to couple the signal to the shield or "ground" in coax cable. It acts like a small, distributed "short circuit" for a bit of the signal through each foot of cable. And the longer the run and the higher the frequency (because capacitors "couple" higher frequencies better - the XC goes down as frequency goes up), the more signal is lost. Impedance matching is critical (as is using cable with the correct impedance!). Every single connection creates loss, and sometimes great loss. There is no way to avoid it, only steps you can take to minimize it.


What type of cable is used with RJ-58?

The question is confusing: RJ58 is a cable. It is typically used in low-power signal and RF connection applications.


What are the maximum capabilities of an RF Cable?

An RF cable is an electrical connector designed to work at radio frequencies in the multi-megahertz range. Breakdown is a function of maximum voltage. Maximum capabilities is dependent on frequency since the typical value of VSWR is proportional to the increase in frequency.
