Description
RG58 Coaxial Cable
The Premium Shielded RG58 is an Indoor/Outdoor, Low Loss, 50 Ohm, Rugged, Coaxial Cable.
The Premium Shielded RG58 employs an additional shield by using and aluminium tape wrap around the dielectric, this offers better shielding than typical RG58.
Additionally, the outer braid is tinned copper, rather than the traditional bare copper. This contributes to stable loss over a prolonged period of time as the cable material is less affected by moisture than bare copper.
The mechanical properties of the cable such as the solid PE dielectric provides superior crush resistance and therefore is well suited for tactical applications.
The PVC Jacket contributes to excellent flexibility.
There are a wide variety of connectors available for this cable, including all common interface types.
This flexible 50 Ohm coax cable with PVC jacket is rated for 3 GHz maximum operating frequency.
Cable assemblies – The RG58 range can come as fully tested cable assemblies, ready to simply drop in.
