Low Loss RF Cable Assembly
Standard flexible cable RG58, RG174, RG178 and Low Loss RN100 to RN600 Cable are available with varies Low Loss RF Connector interface, cable assembly will be 100% test to ensure the quality. Cable assembly with weatherproof boot are avialable.
The Cable Loss mainly come from the conductor, the dielectric and braid. As frequency rises, a silver plated conductor and silver plated braid will significantly lower the cable loss, as the current mainly go through the outer skin(skin effect). The dielectric will absorb some energy, a Foam PTFE will help lower the loss.
The thicker the cable, the lower loss will be, but it will add the weight.
