Coaxial Cable Installation Precautions

Do not bend coaxial cables into less than a three-inch radius. Tighter bends can cause shorts and can change a cable’s impedance.

Do not install a coaxial cable where it will have a pulling tension greater than 15 pounds during installation. After installation, make sure there is no tension on the cable.

Use only round-headed staples. Any clamps or securing devices used with coax should grip the cable evenly about the circumference without crushing the cable. Flat staples can damage the coaxial cable.

Do not expose a coaxial cable to a temperature greater than 176 degrees Fahrenheit. Keep the cable away from heating vents and water heaters.
