Rugged RF cables for extreme environments
This high performance RF cable features a silver-plated copper center conductor. It utilizes a 76% microporous PTFE dielectric layer to minimize signal insertion loss.
The triple-layer shield contains SPC flat silver tape, a high-temperature aluminum foil interlayer, and an SPC wire braid. This rugged coaxial cable ensures mechanical stability and reliable performance across extreme environments.
