Description

LMR-400-LLPX

LMR-400-LLPX cable is an indoor, highly fire retardant cable intended specifically for runs within return air handling plenums (e.g. dropped ceilings, raised floors). It has a UL/NEC & CSA rating of ‘CMP’ and ‘FT6’ respectively.

The LMR range is recognised globally as the industry standard ultra low loss, flexible, low cost, lightweight, DC – 6GHz coaxial cable solution for many RF applications. This is also backed up by the best warranty and technical support in the business.

LMR-400-LLPX is highly fire retardant as well as having excellent reliability, unsurpassed flexibility and ultra low attenuation. The LMR-400-LLPX cable has loss figures comparable to the extremely rigid corrugated coaxial cables however manages to achieve similar flexibility to that of high loss RG Cables. LMR-400 is around 40% lower attenuation than RG-8, RG 213, RG 214 and 9913 Air-Dielectric type Cables.

How is the LMR-400-LLPX low loss figures achieved?

This is achieved due to the cable construction specifications. The centre conductor uses a high conductivity, Bare copper clad covered aluminium centre conductor material. The dielectric is nitrogen injected, foamed, closed cell, Polyethylene which helps achieve 84% Velocity of Propagation. The Dielectric has a Aluminium foil outer conductor, which is chemically bonded on to it. Due to the cable construction, The attenuation is significantly lower as compared to single shielded coaxial cables: RF shielding of LMR-400 is > 90 db as compared to 40 dB for RG8.

Outer Jacket

The Jacket of the LMR-400-LLPX is made from Fluoropolymer, this is engineered to create a low loss coaxial cable that is highly fire retardant, with a much wider operating temperature range.

Frequency Operating Band

LMR-400-LLPX is designed to operate excellent from DC – 6GHz. For any frequency band at VHF and above LMR is the obvious choice.

 Applications

 LMR-400-LLPX Flexible Low Loss Communications Coaxial Cable is ideal for:
  •  Drop-in replacement with up to 40% Lower Attenuation for RG-8 , RG 213 ,RG 214 and 9913 Air-Dielectric type Cables
  •  Jumper Assemblies in Wireless Communications Systems
  •  Short Antenna Feeder runs
  • WLL
