Questions about this item
Will the 45-605 PrepPro strip the RG-59 and RG-6 coaxial cables I already have installed?
Yes, it handles RG-59, RG-59 Quad, RG-6, RG-6 Quad and RG-6 Plenum coaxial cables with the grey cartridge.
How do I confirm the 45-605 PrepPro is set up correctly before I start stripping?
Insert the grey coax or blue UTP/STP cartridge until it clicks, then make a test cut on a scrap piece to verify clean jacket removal without nicking the conductor.
