RG178 CABLE
Precise Impedance: All cables in the series maintain a stable 50±2-ohm characteristic impedance, ensuring minimal signal reflection and maximum power transfer in standard RF systems.
Low-Loss Dielectric: At the core is a gas-injected foam polyethylene (PE) insulation. This construction significantly reduces dielectric losses compared to solid PE, enabling better signal integrity over longer distances, especially at higher frequencies.
Superior Shielding: A dual-layer shield combining a bonded aluminum foil and a high-density (80%-95% coverage) tinned copper or aluminum alloy braid provides excellent protection against Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) and Radio Frequency Interference (RFI). This ensures signal purity in electrically noisy environments.
Durable Outer Jacket: Options include PVC for general use, UV-resistant PE for outdoor applications, and Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) for installations with strict fire safety requirements, such as in public spaces, aircraft, or mass transit systems.
Applications
