TherecommendedmaximumlengthsofCATVcableareasfollows:

* Exceeding the distance of copper-clad cable will result in
the attached RAU becoming
non-functional. If the distance of a cable run is at its maximum and is of concern, TE recommends
the use of solid copper cable to ensure successful operation.
