Important for this application is the center conductor. Is it Copper Clad Steel (CCS) or is it solid copper?
Dual shield has a further clarification needed. What % of braid is used on the dual shield?
Dielectric - What is the rated frequency of the coax?
Last is distance. How far has the signal got to go?

If you are using a solid copper center, 60%+ braid w/foil, swept test to 2GHz, and going less than 100 meters (330ft.). Then you should be fine.

[edit]: The ends! Make sure you are using quality compression fitted BNC connectors. If you are using F to BNC adapters, you might have problems. If you are using twist-on BNC connectors, you need to be shot!
