Hi,

As title really, I'm looking for some flexible RG6 as the stuff I'm using is quad sheilded and nasty to bend at such small lengths.  I'm using quad sheilded from dish to switch and then I want something easy to bend and flexible for the final journey as the switch is often not quite easy to place so end up with tight radii to get to server.

Any suggestions?

Cheers,

Chris

Use decent RG 59. Is flexible and for lengths you're talking loss difference in cable is neglible, given connector losses being equal.
