Question: can rg59 be used for hdtv?
Answer: However, crimp and twist-on connectors can be put on RG6 cables as well but they cannot be used for satellite TV. ... RG59 cables are narrower than RG6 cables so if you find that the cable is less than 6.5mm wide, that's RG59. If you're still not able to make a conclusive match, it's best not to use that cable, period.
