If you want to find the voltage and amperes from an f81 connector connected between receiver and multiswitch and your left off with only the physical rg6 cable that was connected between multiswitch and lnb can you find out how many voltage and amperes the f81 connector received? What specific information is needed? What tool is needed to find the ratings of volts and amps of the physical rg6 cable itself due to it's label faded away by dust?

 

RG6 is not a power transmsission rated cable. 1A and maybe 30V are typical MAX power use ranges in communications applications. It will likely take several hundred volts AC, with a 18 gauge solid copper center, the ampacity is 14A. If the inner shields are a equivalent wire gauge. I would not use it at those voltage and current ranges.

How would you describe this satellite TV installation here's a photo diagram example. It's a dish network dishpro 301 system.

Typical communications application, 21V @ 200mA. The cable carries DC power for the switches and the LNB module at the feedhorn on the sat dish.

I have a RF switching matrix of the cables and switches from my FTA days when you could easily crack DISH encryption. It was just a personal hobby playing cat and mouse with their countermeasures, still have my HH (to move the dish automatically across all the geosync birds at my location) system online for most sat bands, modulations and polarities of RF waves..

It was original a Primestar dish. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PrimeStar
Old PrimeStar satellite dishes are popular among hobbyists for free-to-air (FTA) satellite broadcasts on the Ku band transponders of FSS satellites.

The dishes are also popular for wireless computer networking as high-gain Wi-Fi antennas. The antennas are also used by amateur (ham) radio operators to transmit two-way amateur television.

Multi LNB feedhorn update I'm using now.
At least 18 years of usage. A little moss and rust from the PWN rain.


HH motor power is also supplied from the RG6 cable.
