The wire you are asking about (in the additional info section) is 300 Ohm Twin lead (the flat stuff).
The first thing you posted is a 300 Ohm to 75 Ohm Balun (aka matching transformer).
The round cable you posted is coaxial cable. The connector on the end of the coax looks like a “Type F” connector.
You can put the matching transformer anywhere in the system and run either the Twin Lead or the coax and get good results. Most modern systems convert to coax as soon as possable (usually at the antenna) and then run coax throughout.
