The black sheath variant of the PoC-rated RG59 cable is specified for installations where the cable runs on dark-coloured or external surfaces where a black cable provides a less visible and more professionally presented surface run. Brick, dark render, grey or black-painted walls, dark timber fascias, and exterior surface runs on buildings with dark cladding are the typical applications for black cable.
The PoC-rated conductor specification is identical to the white variant: the cable is constructed to carry both the coaxial video signal and the DC power supply for PoC cameras simultaneously, which distinguishes it from standard video-only RG59 cable. Using the correct PoC-rated cable is important for reliable operation of PoC camera systems, particularly over longer runs where the DC resistance of an under-specified conductor would result in insufficient camera supply voltage at the far end.
At 100 metres, the drum provides a complete run from DVR to a single distant camera position, which covers the practical working range of PoC systems. Beyond the cable length, the PoC system's power delivery capacity should be confirmed against the camera's power consumption at the specified distance.
For CCTV installers completing PoC camera system installations on dark-coloured buildings, brick-built commercial properties, and external surface runs across London and the UK, the black PoC-rated RG59 drum provides the correct coaxial cable specification in the appropriate colour for the installation surface.
