Can I use BrightWire F677TSVV cable for Satellite?

[ken2400]

I found some
Ev5580071 Commscope inc. F677TSVV "BrightWire" (TM) 2000896 (ETL)us CATV 18 AWG

cable and was wondering if I could use it to connect dish to receiver?

Thanks

It's some of the best coax made....77% shield. In the RG-6 variety Commscope Tri-Shield F677 is all I use.....

Looks like it is just tested up to 1000 MHz, is that a problem? I got conflicting opinions on that issue when it came up recently:

With this coax it is NOT a problem.....I've ran up to 2150 Mhz down the hill with this coax with fine results....

I'll take results over theory every time! Thanks AC.

No problem...I haven't used any other type of RG-6 coax in many years. There is little to no advantage between tri shield and quad shield in a normal location, and tri shield works great with regular F connectors.
