In Unit Grade 1, at each outlet location, how many coaxial cables are required?

• A. Two 75-ohm coaxial cables
• B. Three 75-ohm coaxial cables
• C. One 75-ohm coaxial cable
• D. None

Answer: (C)

One coaxial feed per outlet is the standard requirement. Coax used for video is 75 ohms, which matches the impedance of most TV receivers and helps minimize signal reflections to keep picture quality good. So, for each outlet location, you run a single 75-ohm coaxial cable from the distribution point to the outlet. If you later need to serve more than one device at that same outlet, you would add a splitter or additional drops, but the basic per-outlet requirement is just one coaxial cable.
