What is Quad-Shield RG-6 cable
RG6 refers to transmission performance of the 75-Ohm coaxial cable used for video distribution and cable modem.

RG-6 cables can have two or four layers of shielding. "Quad" refers to four layers. The more shielding layers we have, the better the noise immunity of the cable.

Quad-shield RG6 cable is recommended for video distribution in homes by the TIA/EIA-570-A residential cabling standard.
