Coaxial Cable Televes 2162 Orange 75 Ω — 2162 series, single TV/antenna cable

Televes 2162 Orange is a 75 Ω coaxial cable designed for TV and antenna installations. Intended for indoor and in-wall routing in homes and small commercial environments, this single TV/antenna cable provides the standard impedance required for stable reception of terrestrial and cable television signals. The construction is compatible with common coaxial F-type and IEC fittings, enabling straightforward connections to receivers, set-top boxes and distribution equipment.

Advantages

The cable provides consistent 75 Ω impedance for reduced signal reflections and reliable picture quality. Its build quality supports easy termination with standard connectors and maintains mechanical flexibility for routing through walls and conduits. The orange outer sheath improves visibility during installation and identification within multi-cable runs, while the internal conductor and shielding arrangement offer adequate protection against everyday electromagnetic interference common in domestic settings.

Suitable for

• Indoor TV and antenna installations in residential environments
• In-wall routing for single TV or set-top box connections
• Small commercial AV setups where a single coax run is required
• Replacement of existing 75 Ω coax cable in living rooms, bedrooms or media cabinets

Key specifications

• Characteristic impedance: 75 Ω
• Application: TV and terrestrial/cable antenna signal transmission
• Cable type: single coaxial TV/antenna cable
• Installation environment: indoor and in-wall use
• Connector compatibility: standard F-type and IEC connectors (requires proper termination)
• Outer sheath color: orange (for easy identification)

How to use

Measure the required cable length and run the cable along the planned route, avoiding sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic interference. For in-wall installations, follow local building codes and use appropriate conduit or fire-rated cable if required. Terminate the cable ends with compatible F-type or IEC connectors using proper stripping and crimping or compression tools to ensure secure electrical contact. Connect to the TV, receiver or distribution amplifier and verify signal quality; if necessary, check connections and replace connectors or use a signal meter for fine adjustments.

Recommendations

For best results, keep cable runs as short and direct as practical, avoid running coax parallel and close to power or data cables, and ensure connector terminations are clean and secure. Use weatherproofing measures only when the cable is adapted to outdoor use; otherwise limit exposure to moisture and UV light by keeping installations indoors or within protected conduits.
