All DX Engineering cable assemblies are Hi-Pot tested and heat-shrink weather-sealed for the ultimate in service longevity.

DX Engineering RG-8X 50-ohm Coaxial Cable Assemblies are the most flexible, lowest loss and highest quality coaxial cable assemblies on the market. DXE-8X cable assemblies feature a stranded copper 16 AWG center conductor, gas injected foam dielectric, braided copper shield and non-contaminating, highly water-resistant Type II-A PVC UV stable direct-bury jacket. Our DXE-8X cable assemblies are intended for HF portable applications where the visibility of short antenna cables and flexibility are desired. DX Engineering DXE-8X is the industry standard specifications black jacket coax. DXE-8X is the coax cable most often used for jumpers in the shack and for medium length cables for portable operations, offering significantly better flexibility than larger cables, excellent shielding, and lower loss than smaller RG-58 and RG-174.

DXE-8X is the part number for this coaxial cable sold by the foot and it is also available in 1,000 ft. spools as DXE-8X-1000.
