FAQ

Q: What is this Matchmaster coaxial cable suitable for?

A: It's an RG58C/U coaxial cable suited to CB radio systems, VHF and UHF radio systems with shorter cable runs, computer networking, amateur radio, and base radio antenna stations.

Q: Can this cable be cut to a custom length?

A: Yes, this coaxial cable can be cut to length in 1m increments, allowing it to be ordered to the exact length needed.


For longer runs, the same cable type is available as a 500m coaxial cable on a reel.

Flexible jumper connections at the radio end can use a coaxial flylead for quick patching.

For precise end prep before crimping, a coaxial stripping tool suits RG58 cable diameters.
