Coaxial cable is used in distribution networks to transmit data and radio frequency signals. Coaxial cable, or coax, has an insulating layer covering the inner conductor, which is surrounded by a tabular conducting shield. The shielding effect of this design helps the coaxial cable protect the signal it is carrying from external electromagnetic interference. The primary industries using coaxial cable are the military, aerospace, telecommunications companies, and cable television.
North America Coaxial Cable Market Driving Factors and Challenges
Drivers: The coaxial cable market is anticipated to increase at a rapid rate during the forecast period due to SMEs' high rise in telecom and IT spending.
