RF Cable Assembly Handles Test Apps To 40 GHz

Tailored for test-bench applications up to 40 GHz, the latest TestPro RF cable assembly features robust center-contact retention. Like other TestPro 3 cables, it is tested for bending stability according to IEC 966-1, bending method number 2. Results show phase stability as low as 5? typical with bending at 40 GHz. To meet the requirements for stability with handling during bench test use, the cables also offer a loss stability of less than 0.1 dB variation with bending and 0.03 dB with shaking at the maximum frequency of 40 GHz. Additionally, the cable and connectors handle a minimum of 20,000 bending cycles and 5,000 mating cycles. RADIALL USA INC., Chandler, AZ. (480) 682-9400.
