RE: Cable Types

["Rob Mouser" <rmouser@xxxxxxx>]

Hi Kevin

Thanks for that. Yeh noticed that the retail version used phonos, guess
its more joe public friendly? 
Going to run a 5 core and a 4 core, just to be safe + a couple of CAT5!
Would like to run more but these cables are BIG buggers! If I drill any
more holes in my ceiling joists the ceilings are likely to collapse :-(

All I got to do now is find someone with stock of the 37" Pany
unit,
rare as rocking horse doodoo's it seems :-(


Many thanks

Rob,

    VanDamme stuff is good used by the Beeb etc - Maplins
sell it retail
-
remember 4 core will mean you have to go composite synch - I would
strongly
recommend 5 core even if you don't intend to use it now.
    Also I should mention - the black Panasonic Plasma
screens use BNC
connectors - the silver use phono.

  Hi All



  Did some phoning around today about cable types for distributing
RGB
and
  S-Video. The consensus of opinion is that the below is as good as
it
  gets for longer runs:



  VanDamme

  268-304  Red series 4 core miniature coax  (This is good
for two
s-video
  connections or one RGB+C)

  268-305  Red series 5 core miniature coax (Again can be used
for
s-video
  or RGB, but also for VGA Monitor connections.)



  You can buy it direct from

  http://www.vdctrading.com
<http://www.vdctrading.com/>

  by the metre but they supply trade only. CPC also sell it but
  unfortunately only in 50m lengths.



  I'm going to run one of each giving me the option of S-video or
RGB
and
  also PC Output. Seemed a good solution.



  Many thanks
