When used for Ethernet, it provides a maximum segment length of 185 meters.This cable is used for radiocommunication and amateur radio, thin Ethernet (10base2) and NIM electronics. When used for Ethernet, it provides a maximum segment length of 185 meters.It will carry baseband video in closed-circuit television.  It was once (long ago) used for cable television but the signal loss was too high. Generally it has poor shielding but will carry an HQ HD signal or video over short distances.  This cable should not be used for Cable TV.== RG-62U 92 Ohm ==RG62U, RG-62 U. This cable is most commonly used in automobiles for the car stereo radio antenna. It is also used for the once popular ARCNET networking system for computers.  Original ARCNET used RG-62/U coax cable and either passive or active hubs in a star-wired bus topology, a layout eventually copied by modern twisted pair Ethernet LANs.
