Shakespeare 4352 10 Foot AM/FM Boat Antenna Extension Cable, 93 Ohm RG-62 Coax

The Shakespeare 4352 is a 10 foot AM/FM antenna extension cable built to lengthen the run between a boat's AM/FM antenna and the radio when the factory cable falls short. It uses 93 ohm RG-62 coaxial cable terminated with a male Motorola plug on one end and a female Motorola connector on the other, so it connects directly in-line with the coax and plug already used on Shakespeare AM/FM antennas without cutting or re-terminating any cable. Matching the correct 93 ohm impedance keeps the AM/FM signal path consistent end to end, avoiding the signal loss or reception issues that come from mismatched cable runs. This makes it a straightforward solution for boats where the radio has been relocated, the original antenna cable is too short for the intended routing, or a longer helm-to-antenna run is needed during a refit. The cable is finished in black and supplied as a complete, ready-to-install 10 foot length. Because it is a simple extension with pre-installed connectors, no splicing, soldering, or additional hardware is required, and installation is limited to routing the cable and plugging it in at both ends.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Shakespeare 4352 extension cable do? It extends the connection between an AM/FM boat antenna and the radio by 10 feet, letting the cable reach further without cutting or re-terminating the original antenna cable.

What type of cable is used in the Shakespeare 4352? The 4352 uses 93 ohm RG-62 coaxial cable, matching the impedance of Shakespeare AM/FM antennas so the signal path stays consistent.

How long is the Shakespeare 4352 extension cable? This extension cable is 10 feet long.

What connectors does the 4352 extension cable have? One end has a male Motorola plug and the other end has a female Motorola connector, so it plugs directly in line with existing Motorola-style antenna cable.

Will the 4352 work with any AM/FM antenna? The Shakespeare 4352 is designed to extend AM/FM antenna cables that terminate in a Motorola-style connector, such as those used on Shakespeare AM/FM antennas.

Do I need to solder or splice anything to install this cable? No. The 4352 has pre-installed Motorola connectors on both ends, so installation is a matter of plugging it in between the antenna cable and the radio connection.

How much does the Shakespeare 4352 weigh? The extension cable weighs 0.34 pounds.

What color is the Shakespeare 4352 cable? It is black.

Is the 4352 suitable for VHF antenna cable extension? The 4352 is built as a 93 ohm AM/FM extension cable; it is not listed as a VHF antenna extension.

Why does impedance matter when extending an antenna cable? Using a 93 ohm cable like the Shakespeare 4352 keeps the impedance matched to the AM/FM antenna and radio, which avoids the signal loss that mismatched cable impedance can cause.

What is included with the Shakespeare 4352? The product is a single 10 foot RG-62 coaxial cable with a male Motorola plug and a female Motorola connector already installed.
