Description
LMR-900-FR
LMR-900-FR a non-halogen (non-toxic), low smoke, fire retardant version of the LMR-900 cable designed for in-building runs that can be routed anywhere except air handling plenums. LMR-900-FR is UL/NEC & CSA rated ‘CMR’ and ‘FT4’ respectively, meets FAA FAR25 requirements and is MSHA-P for mining applications.
This cable has loss figures comparable to the extremely rigid corrugated coaxial cables such as CommScope AVA5 series and Radio Frequency Systems LCF series however manages to achieve unsurpassed flexibility, making the cable much easier to install. Installing the connectors on the LMR-900-DB cable versus corrugated copper cables is much quicker and simpler, with only basic tools needed.
How is the LMR-900-FR 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 87% Velocity of Propagation. The Dielectric has an 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-900-FR is > 90 db.
Outer Jacket
All FR Jacketed LMR coaxial cable comes with a non-halogen (non-toxic), low smoke, fire retardant PE Jacket.
Frequency Operating Band
LMR-900-FR is designed to operate excellent from DC – 6GHz. For any frequency band at VHF and above LMR is the obvious choice.
