Pasternack Enterprises, a manufacturer and supplier of RF, microwave, and millimeter wave products, has just released its newest engineering resource, called the Cable Assembly Designer, which allows the user to design and customize RF cable assemblies with an easy-to-use online web application at Pasternack.com.
Pasternack’s new custom cable designer enables engineers and buyers to create customized RF cable assemblies that meet their specifications from any combination of compatible connectors and cables offered by the company. Pasternack stocks and builds a comprehensive selection of RF cable assemblies, with over 250,000 possible combinations, all available to ship the day they are ordered. Whether you are looking for a common off-the-shelf cable or something unique to your specifications, Pasternack’s new web tool allows you to build your own custom cable assembly from over 1,300 connector types and 115 different coaxial cables (including Twinax).
The RF cable assembly designer from Pasternack lets the user select from a variety of connector and coax parameters that meet their specifications in any order they prefer, such as gender, polarity, body style, max frequency, impedance, and coax attachment method. After ensuring all of the parameters for the connectors and coax have been selected, including the desired cable length and quantity, an RFQ is sent to Pasternack’s sales and service team for immediate follow up with pricing, availability, and a part number for the assembly. The RF Cable Assembly Designer also allows the selection of numerous value-added services such as custom labeling, lead-free solder/RoHS compliance, and custom booting/heat shrink.
“The new Cable Assembly Designer is a great new resource for engineers looking to easily customize the products they need for their specific applications,” said Steve Ellis, interconnect product manager at Pasternack. “This tool allows engineers to do what they do best: design.”
