Question What is this cable called?

[NathW90]

Hi all,

Can anyone please tell me specifically what the name of this cable/the connectors are called? It's being used for Virgin Media cable TV, and I need to get a longer one. I know one end is a male coaxial connector.

Many thanks!

RG6 coax with female F fitting on one end and looks like RCA plug on the other. Simplest thing would be to get an F fitting then you can use standard coax to extend your connection.

Looks like from an old audio receiver for the FM radio for antenna hook-up.

Apparently Virgin can supply up to 3m cable if that length suits you, assuming you're still subscribed to them. Longer then that they send a technician for a fee to custom make and test. But you could probably get away with doing what Kanewolf suggested.
