March 12, 2010 — RF Industries offers a line of 18GHz precision test cables in standard or custom lengths, suitable for production or lab environments. Featuring high-grade, passivated, stainless steel SMA males with PTFE insulators, this unique cable is configured for low loss and low VSWR. With triple shielding for optimum EMI protection, they are very phase-stable during mechanical and environmental stresses. The cable is also manufactured in accordance with MIL-DTL-17, type IX specification. Other features include high velocity of propagation, wide operating temperature and blue FEP jacket.
Armored versions for rugged field applications are also available.
RF Industries created these test cables to meet a growing need for test grade cable assemblies.Electrical data is: 50 Ohms impedance, 23.8 pf/ft capacitance, 85% Vp, better than -95 dB shielding effectiveness, -55 to +200C operating temperature and -.50 dB/ft attenuation @ 18GHz.RF Precision Products is a division of RF Industries that designs and manufactures precision grade, high frequency stainless steel connectors and adapters for OEM, military and metrology labs.
