What is the electrical difference between RG-58 and RG-213 coaxial cable?
Pick an answer to check it.
Answer: C. RG-213 cable has less loss at a given frequency
RG-213 has less loss at a given frequency than RG-58. RG-213 is thicker, with a larger center conductor, so it also handles more power. RG-58 is thinner and lossier, though lighter and easier to handle.
Tip: Fatter coax (RG-213) = less loss.
