Sharing the same conduit

[Kevin]

I've got a conduit that currently houses a single CAT5 cable. I want to run a coaxial cable in the same conduit but I'm unsure if I will get any interference or not. Any ideas?

Should Not be a problem, the whole idea of coax cable is that it is shielded.

Interference is usually only a problem when you're running power lines next to data lines. So as long as you don't have any extension cords running there as well you should be fine.

It's all low voltage cabling, you're fine.

I'm running 120 volts over RG6

That's what I thought, thanks for the replies...

also, cat5 is twisted together for the sole purpose of shielding. mainly from itself but of course the other side effect is it doesnt emit rf to anything else either.
