This handformable cable is a good alternative
to RG402 for applications requiring an easy
routing on equipment.
Due to the outer conductor construction, this
cable can be hand formed with exceptional
ease with no spring back effect.
Cable can be reshaped, eliminating the need
for costly drawings.
Attenuation is a little bit higher than the
RG402's one but temperature range is wider.

This jacketed cable will be used instead
of standard unjacketed .141 for applications
requiring electrical insulation and/or
protection against environmental aggressions
(chemical, humidity...).
The FEP jacket allows this cable to be used
under severe thermal conditions.
The jacket makes the spring back effect
slightly increasing.
