If someone is looking for direct-burial cable, the term is "flooded" cable.

This is cable with a heavy-duty jacket, and sticky flooding compound 
between the jacket and braid to help against water ingress. The good 
stuff will also have an adhesively attached full foil shield in addition 
to 98% tinned braided shield coverage.

It's available in a lot of different cable types, including RG-6.
