After running the coax at the church, I did a check on PPC. Was surprised to see that the company is owned by Belden.
I asked the owner of the electronics store that I've done business with for decades if he could order a spool of the RG6 so I could use it at home.
He led me to his office and accessed the Belden website where he orders product. The PPC numbers were not recognized by the system.
I suppose Belden is treating PPC as a completely separate entity and limiting availability to industry as opposed to consumers (I don't think that Graybar or Anixter sell it). Wouldn't surprise me if the cable for both brands is produced in the same factories on the same equipment.
Perfect Flex is tri-shielded while Belden 1189A is quad. Belden 1613R is tri, but, the retailer doesn't stock it, so, he special ordered a box for me. He doesn't carry the Belden compression connectors, but, Lowes does.
