    Full text manual (for reference)

    Specification sheet for the SCP RG59/U-S-DB Siamese direct burial cable — RG59/U coax bonded with an 18/2 power conductor pair, rated for direct burial CCTV camera installs.

    Overview

    This is a Siamese cable combining RG59/U coaxial video cable (20 AWG bare copper center conductor, 95% braid shield) with an 18/2 AWG stranded power conductor pair in a single black PE direct-burial jacket. It's built for running video and 12V/24V camera power together in one outdoor/underground pull — a standard choice for CCTV camera installs where the run needs to survive burial.
