Product Description – Model CA600-METER
AIR802® manufactures high performance cable. Our CA600 series cable offers equivalent or better characteristics and performance than other existing industry cables such as Commscope WBC-600®, Times Microwave LMR-600®, Andrew CNT-600®, etc. AIR802 CA600 coaxial cable is very popular for tower use and other applications requiring extremely low loss cable.
AIR802 CA600-METER is our superior Low Loss 600-Series coaxial cable offered per meter. We also offer CA600 cable in a 500 reels, 1000 foot reels or by the foot. It is manufactured with a polyethylene (PE) jacket which is UV resistant, and is built to withstand harsh temperatures, grease and oil, chemicals, salt water, abrasions and offers a 20 year plus lifespan. CA600 with its tough PE jacket is especially suited for long life outdoor use.
If your application is direct burial, our CA600 is also the best choice with it’s polyethylene (PE) jacket.
