We've had water in the 1021 when there's obvious jacket damage. We're
also considering just going with the 1042 for everything. Less stuff to
stock. And it's not that much more expensive per box. Like $25 I think.
And it's nice that we can just swing by WAV and pick up how ever many
boxes we need. Kudos to Mark for getting that Shireen distribution deal
set up.

I've been considering changing to DC-1042 for customer installs (we've
been using it for all our tower stuff for awhile), but I really
haven't seen any problems with the DC-1021, and our installers seem to
like it, so I'm not sure if it's a good idea to switch...

Have you tried the Shireen DC-1042? It’s similar to Belden, but
the foil isn’t bonded to the jacket so you can actually fold it
back. It has the dry gel impregnated tape instead of the clear
mylar in the Belden. Only thing I miss maybe is the stranded
drain wire. I forget which Belden version has that, we used to
buy both 1300a and 7919a, I think maybe it was the 7919a that had
the stranded drain wire.
The Shireen pullboxes work pretty nice.

thats how the belden is, soft sheath is more durable. I love
coming across it. the apex is prone to pinholing and kinking

I don’t buy Commscope 5NF4 anymore because the installers
won’t use it because they hate the goo. They do have to admit
however when they go to a 10 year old install that it stands
up to the weather really, really well.

if i was in charge, we never would have gone away from the
belden on the residential outdoor. apex 9 in the winter is so
stiff, the foil tears and the drain is like a bread tie. but
at least its not green toughcable :-)

Love you too Steve :-)
We do sell Primus, Belden, and Shireen as well if you
would rather use one of those cables.
