Need Help IDing a cable

Hi All,


A friend hands me a roll of new cable and asks me if I want it, "of course" I say. I thought it might be RG-11 or something like it, but the ends are not "F" type. They are more like a BNC twist on type.

I want to know if I can use this as OTA antenna cable since I think it is about 100 feet and should be low loss.
Can it be adapted to coax or F type connectors be used on it?

According to the giver of said cable it is used in the cable TV industry in situation where low loss is imperative, but I think he may just be guessing.

Take a look:
