RG58 RG59

The document summarizes specifications for two common types of coaxial cables: RG58 and RG59. RG58 is available in 50 ohm versions and uses a copper conductor with polythene insulation and braided shield. RG59 uses a copper-clad steel conductor, polythene insulation, braided shield, and is rated at 75 ohms. Key specifications listed include conductor and insulation diameters, capacitance, attenuation rates, voltage ratings, and packaging information like reel lengths.
