DXE-F6 - 75 Ω F-6 Style, Direct Bury Coaxial Cable: Full Spool or Custom Cable Assemblies
DX Engineering recommends using a high quality 75 Ω “flooded” F6 type coaxial cable. Flooded style cables have
the distinct advantage of automatically sealing small accidental cuts or lacerations of the jacket. Flooding also
prevents shield contamination and can be direct-buried. This low-loss cable features dual shields and an 85%
Velocity Factor.
DXE-SNS6
Snap-N-Seal connectors are recommended for use with this coaxial cable to ensure a
high quality and weather resistant feedline connection. The proper tool
DXE-SNS-CT1
must be used to install these
connectors.
Custom cable assemblies are available, Call DX Engineering for details.

360 degree radial compression system that offers the signal leakage protection required for high performance receive systems.
Quad sealed system prevents moisture from migrating into the connection
360 degree radial compression provides superior RF integrity (-95dB typical, 60% bonded foil cable)
Easy cable preparation
Connector to cable retention of 40 lbs minimum
Superb impedance match to 1 GHz
Manufactured of high quality 360 brass, cadmium plated with yellow chromate coating for maximum
corrosion resistance
UV-resistant plastic and O-rings provide a reliable environmentally sealed connector
An installation tool, such as the
DXE-SNS-CT1
is required to install the connectors. Normal crimping tools or pliers will not work.
