I bought this to replace a cheap cable that was used when my satellite was installed. I didn't want to spend a lot of money on a coax cable, since I'm hoping to upgrade some components and use superior connections soon.Conversely, I didn't want to buy something too cheap and make anything worse.I chose this one because it appeared to be a good cable at a decent price, and it is.The cable feels well made and the connectors feel sturdy and tight. It's a good cable.
