RG flexible cables
Standardized by MIL-C-17 US government specification since
the 40’s, these familiar P/N’s are mainly used for military RF and
microwave applications
.
Every electrical, mechanical and environmental performance is
controlled and in compliance with the relevant standard.
KX cables are equivalent to RG cables under french standards
(NF).
These cables will be of perfect use with dynamic applications
(bending moment) or needing flexibility for ease of connection.
RADIALL Eco-friendly low loss cables
These high performance custom cables have been designed for
optimized electrical and environmental requirements.
Cost effective
compared with RG cables, they are the perfect
alternative to fulfill your needs.
These cables are halogen free and flame retardant to meet
safety environmental regulations.
Hand-formable cables
Using a tin-dipped braid technology, these cables are a
compromise between performance and flexibility.
They allow easy routing during installation (without spring-
back effect) and multiple repositions on site.
Preserving high performance level (low loss and high shielding
efficiency,) they are a good cost-effective alternative to semi-
rigid cables.
Corrugated cables
The outer conductor of these cables is constituted of a
corrugated tube (spiral or ringed winding).
This construction allows perfect shielding and some bendability
while respecting large bending radius.
The hight performance level of these cables enable them to be
used in outdoor long length transmission lines.
Semi-rigid cables
The solid tubing technology allows definitive and high precision
forming
. These cables use only high grade insulation material
and feature optimal shielding effectiveness. They provide the
highest electrical performance (e.g: the lowest insertion loss)
KS cables are equivalent to semi-rigid RG cables under French
standards (NF).
These cables can also be used for cosmetic aspect where
straight and clear cable path must be demonstrated.
