Description
Antenna Feeder calibrated cable
CELLFLEX® 7/8″ low loss flexible cable
FEATURES
The reduced attenuation of CELLFLEX® coaxial cable results in extremly efficient signal transfer in your RF system, especially at high frequencies.
The solid outer conductor of CELLFLEX® coaxial cable creates a continuous RFI/EMI shield that minimizes system interference.
Special low VSWR versions of CELLFLEX® coaxial cables contribute to low system noise.
- Outstanding Intermodulation Performance
CELLFLEX® coaxial cable’s solid inner and outer conductors virtually eliminate intermods. Intermodulation performance is also confirmed with state-of-the-art equipment at the RFS factory.
Due to their low attenuation, outstanding heat transfer properties and temperature stabilized dielectric materials, CELLFLEX® cable provides safe long term operating life at high transmit power levels.
- Wide Range of Application
Typical areas of application are: feedlines for broadcast and terrestrial microwave antennas, wireless cellular, PCS and ESMR base stations, cabling of antenna arrays, and radio equipment interconnects
