(1) SPC = Silver Plated Copper
(2) PTFE = PolyTetraFluoroEthylene
(3) FEP = Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene
Due to its stranded inner conductor, RG 400
is much more flexible than RG142 and RG223.
This cable will be chosen instead
of equivalent RG's for specific applications
requiring high flexibility
Usable in severe thermal conditions.
