We had a bunch of the apex cable start leaking after a year. Towers,
customers, everywhere. We gave up. The double-jacketed stuff was the
best cable ever. The second version. Not the original RG6 quad sized
stuff, that was good stuff, but made backwards (regular cat5 inside,
foil and drain over that, then an over molded outer jacket). We haven't
had any problems with the Shireen 1021 and 1042 stuff.

thats how the belden is, soft sheath is more durable. I love coming

I don’t buy Commscope 5NF4 anymore because the installers won’t
use it because they hate the goo. They do have to admit however
when they go to a 10 year old install that it stands up to the
weather really, really well.

if i was in charge, we never would have gone away from the belden
on the residential outdoor. apex 9 in the winter is so stiff, the
foil tears and the drain is like a bread tie. but at least its not
green toughcable :-)

Love you too Steve :-)
We do sell Primus, Belden, and Shireen as well if you would
rather use one of those cables.

I guess it's time for the regular survey on cable
preferences for residential installs. Of course
looking for shielded Cat5 and preferably pays out of a
box.
