Catenary wire and coax

Grumpy over 5 years ago

I need to run coax about 15m to my garage. I was assuming that I would need a catenary wire support but then I saw my telephone cable! So, the question is, do I need the catenary wire? Many thanks.

I think BT drop cables (CW1411?) have steel wires built-in to act as its own catenary - so probably not a good comparison.

That is what I recall when I removed a surplus one from my premises.
