The cable type is going to be based on the impedance of the signal booster: 50-ohm boosters need 50-ohm cables (usually 400-type coax), and 75-ohm boosters need 75-ohm cables (usually RG-11 or RG-6).
The Top Signal high-gain omni antenna has an N-female connector, so the cable needs an N-male connector. 400-type coax has N-male connectors, so that cable is good right out of the box. If you use RG-11 or RG-6 coax, you’ll need to put an F-to-N adapter on the end of the cable next to the antenna. (For reference, this image shows the different types of connectors involved.)
If you’re still not sure what type of cable you need, please feel free to call Powerful Signal at (435) 634-6800; we’ll be happy to help you!
