Whole-home antenna installations, long cable runs from a rooftop or attic antenna to TVs in multiple rooms, or any coaxial installation where pre-made shorter cables will not reach.
Skip if
You only need a short patch cable or a pre-terminated cable for a basic single-TV setup. A 200-foot bulk reel is overkill for simple setups and requires you to add your own connectors.

Overview
['The GEARit GI-COAX-BUR-200F is a 200-foot black coaxial cable reel priced at $61.48. Bulk cable reels are the tool of choice for permanent whole-home antenna installations, where the exact run length is unknown until you lay the cable and the route may include walls, attic space, or crawl spaces.', 'With 200 feet available, you have enough cable to run signals from a single rooftop or attic antenna to three or four TVs in different rooms, after factoring in routing around walls and through ceiling spaces. Combining this cable with a coaxial splitter and wall plates creates a complete distributed antenna system.', "A 4.7-star rating from 976 reviews and 200 purchases in the past month confirms that real buyers are actively choosing and approving this product for these larger installs. GEARit's cable accessories line is aimed at professional and semi-professional home installation use."]
Pros
- 4.7-star rating from 976 reviews with confirmed recent purchase volume of 200 units
- 200 feet covers whole-home installs and multi-room antenna distribution
- GEARit is a cable brand recognized in professional installation contexts
- Black jacket is standard for outdoor and in-wall routing visibility
Cons
- Requires adding F-type connectors yourself unless it comes pre-terminated (confirm before purchase)

- A 200-foot reel is more than most single-TV setups need
Performance notes
Connectivity is coaxial, standard for antenna and cable TV F-type use. Length is 200 feet. No per-foot attenuation spec or shielding rating is in the available product data. The reel weight is not listed. This is the only product in this group with confirmed recent purchase volume (200 units last month), reinforcing its active, practical use.
What buyers say
A 4.7-star rating from nearly 1,000 reviews combined with active recent sales suggests this product has earned its standing through consistent real-world installs rather than a spike of one-time buyers. Buyers tackling a serious antenna project tend to be informed purchasers, making sustained high ratings in this segment particularly meaningful.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to add connectors to this cable myself?
Bulk coaxial cable reels typically come without pre-installed connectors, meaning you cut the cable to your needed length and crimp or compress F-type connectors onto each end yourself. This requires a coaxial cable stripper and a connector compression or crimping tool, plus the appropriate F-type connectors. If you are not comfortable with this process, look for a pre-made cable in your specific length instead.
How many TVs can I feed from one 200-foot reel?
The number of TVs depends on the distances between your antenna and each TV, and on how you split the signal. A two-way splitter feeds two TVs, a four-way splitter feeds four, and so on. Each split introduces signal loss, so you may need an amplifier if you are running more than two or three ways or if your signal is weak. The cable itself, at 200 feet, gives you enough raw material to plan most residential multi-room installs.
Is this cable suitable for outdoor use?
Coaxial cable used for outdoor antenna runs should have a UV-resistant jacket to prevent cracking over time in sunlight. Black coaxial cable jackets typically include better UV resistance than white variants. Confirm the GEARit cable is rated for outdoor or in-wall use before running it through an exterior wall or leaving it exposed to sunlight, as not all bulk coax is rated for outdoor direct exposure.
