I've never had water in Commscope 5NF4 which unfortunately does not come in
a shielded version, bleeds goo if you use it on a vertical run, and
apparently smells yummy to critters. Oh, and installers hate it, which I
don't understand because the goo is easier to wipe off than the marshmallow
fluff inside BBDGE.

All of that shit we used ended up leaking. Never again.

What cable do most use for tower installations?
I am about to install at some new tower sites and wanted to see if anyone
has had extended success with anything. The current cable I use is
Superior Essex BBDGe which is a flooded cable with a corrugated copper
shield. This cable is very thick and bulky and works well on AM tower when
I install on those.
I saw that Ubiquiti has something that they call TC-CARRIER that looks
like it could meet my needs though I do not know how stable the sheathing
is in the sunlight. I was looking at moving to Cat 6 though I have never
come across Cat 6 tower cable.
Thoughts?
