Re: What cables for VM installation?

Webro HD100 is a match for what VM use, in fact it exceeds the VM spec using copper instead of alluminium.

it is available on ebay in various cut lengths, but is one of the only tri sheilded cables available.

CT100. or WF100 (better than CT100) will do the job, but do not meet VM standards, as they lack the 3rd layer of shielding... most Coax Digital Cables are only Dual Sheilded... So personally I would be weiry of using anything BUT tri sheilded cable.

As any interference or noise that gets on the line will effect your services, and your neighbours which is why VM dont like you tampering with their cables.. also if it is traced back to you they can hold you liable.

So despite CT100 being "ok" as in it will do the job, just be aware it does lack the 3rd layer shielding of a VM RG6 internal cable.
