Braided tin conductor allows easy .141 cable assembly
Standard semi-rigid .141 cable assemblies offer excellent electrical and low PIM performance, however special equipment is required for installations with cable bends, requiring advance planning and longer lead times. Addressing this issue, RF Industries' conformable semi-rigid cable assemblies are manufactured with a tin filled, braided outer conductor that exhibits similar electrical properties to solid semi-rigid, but can be hand formed in the field with no degradation in electrical or PIM performance.
The cable has a diameter of .141", with a protective insulated blue jacket. The assemblies are available terminated with N male and/or QMA male connectors. Assemblies are available in standard lengths of 3, 6 and 9ft, or custom lengths. They have a VSWR of under 1.2:1 up to 2,400MHz with an operating frequency up to 3,000MHz. The PIM rating is less than -155dBc for the N male connectors and -145dBc for the QMA male connectors using 2tones at 20W.
All low PIM cable assemblies manufactured by RF Industries are tested to certify that they meet or exceed the advertised specifications. The PIM value is printed on the cable assembly along with a serial number. For verification, a complete PIM performance chart is available by entering the cable serial number in PIM Tracker on the RF Industries website.
For plenum rated requirements, RF Industries manufactures assemblies using Times Microwave TFT-402-LF cable.
