Though there is an ongoing push in many areas of RF electronics and system design to enhance integration and leverage high volume manufacturing techniques with planar technologies, there is still a growing demand for custom coaxial cable assemblies. Coaxial assemblies...
In large facilities and buildings, it often comes up that there may be a need for fire rated coaxial cable. The term “plenum” cable gets tossed around as well. Many are confused on the terms and the rating systems and how this pertains to the United States National...
The coaxial cable is among the most commonly used transmission lines with optimal broadband performance for applications well into the W-band. The use cases for coaxial cable assemblies are numerous and varied in nature. This whitepaper dives into some of the basics...
RF Coaxial Cables are one of the most common types of transmission lines, used in virtually all types of RF applications. From space, aerospace, and defense/military to home television, either 50 Ohm Coaxial Cables or 75 Ohm Coaxial Cables can be found almost...
RF coaxial cable assemblies consist of a coaxial cable and one or more RF coaxial connectors terminating one or both ends. There are a wide range of both coaxial cable and coaxial connectors. Amongst the variation in coaxial connectors is the method in which the...
The most common types of coaxial cable assemblies most engineers encounter are made with flexible coaxial cables. These cables use a braided or stranded type of outer conductor and a highly flexible dielectric and outer jacket material. An outer jacket is necessary...
Thermal vacuum testing is performed on a wide variety of materials, devices, and systems to either evaluate the test subjects in a simulated space environment or to condition the subjects in a space-like environment. This is a critical stage in the burn-in, break-in,...
RF Coaxial Cables are one of the most common transmission line types in use today. Part of the reason for this is that there is a wide range of design freedom and material use that allow for RF coax cables to be designed for a wide range of applications....
