Coaxial Cables
The coaxial cable used to connect the Cisco uBR7200 series universal broadband routers at the headend
should be very high-quality cable.
Cisco recommends that you use a headend-grade coaxial cable or a quad-shield coaxial cable to connect
the cable modem cards to the hybrid fiber-coaxial (HFC) network. The center conductor must be straight
and extend 1/8 inch (3.2 mm) beyond the end of the connector, and the connector should be securely
crimped to the cable. The following headend cables are recommended:
•
59-series cable (preferred)—20 AWG (0.032 inch/0.81 mm diameter) silver plated, copper-clad,
steel center conductor; bonded foil inner shield; 95 percent braid second shield; nonbonded foil third
shield; 95 percent braid fourth shield.
•
59-series quad shield—20 AWG (0.032 inch/0.81 mm diameter) copper-clad steel center conductor;
bonded foil inner shield; 53 percent braid second shield; nonbonded foil third shield; 34–35 percent
braid fourth shield.
•
6-series quad shield—18 AWG (0.0359 inch/0.91 mm diameter) copper-clad steel center conductor;
bonded foil inner shield; 60 percent braid second shield; nonbonded foil third shield; 40–42 percent
braid fourth shield.
Note
Any of the three of the coaxial cables listed can be used to connect a Cisco cable interface line card to
the HFC network; however, the consistent use of 59-series cable is preferred. If you connect a 59-series
cable to a cable interface line card that was previously connected using 6-series cable, the difference in
the center connector diameter might cause intermittent connectivity loss.
