I've found armored cable virtually impossible to do a quality
termination on. I've wondered if it would be better to terminate them
"close" to the endpoint with a small punch block inside an enclosure,
then finish the job with something a bit easier to do a decent RJ45
termination on?
Something like this:

Does anyone sell custom length, per-terminated BBDGE cable? I have an

Also, has anyone used grounding kits on the cable for mid-span
grounding? Will Coax cable kits work on it?
It's been years since I've worked with that cable, I think back when
it had to be punched into the PTP400 LPU Units. I remember it being a
pain to field terminate.
One of our tower sites just put up antennas at 6.9, 9.2 and 14.7mhz
and it's causing all kinds of Ethernet problems for our cables that
pass through their array. They want to run at 5-6kw, and we start
having problems when they go over 2kw. They are hoping that if we
change to the BBDGE cable with lots of Grounding, it will fix the
problems. Already have Coils at the top and bottom on Beldon7919
cable. That got us from 400w failure to 2kw failure.
