How important is the coax in this kind of setup? The existing wires are likely 20 years old and have been subject to all kinds of weather over that time. I'm guessing I should replace it all at the same time.
You have enjoyed the best years that coax had to offer... RG-6 is the cable to choose. The extra shield on RG-6 Quad is needed only for satellite applications, no need for the extra expense.

If you have the budget, the CM-3671 would not be overkill, IMO.
