Pasternack Unveils New Lines of Ultra-Miniature Cable Assemblies with Performance Up to 6 GHz

Flexible Cable Jumpers Using Micro-Coax Snap-On Connectors Now Available from Pasternack 

Ultra-Miniature Cable Assemblies with Performance Up to 6 GHz from Pasternack

Irvine, CA - Pasternack, a leading manufacturer and supplier of RF, microwave and millimeter wave products, introduces new lines of ultra-miniature UMCX, WMCX and HMCX32 coaxial cable assemblies. These low profile, flexible micro-coax jumper cables offer operation from DC to 6 GHz and are ideal for wireless applications including Wi-Fi, Wireless LAN, Bluetooth, ZigBee, LTE, mini-PCI, mobile antenna/GPS/radio systems, PDA/PCS/cellular handset application and other wireless communications systems. These cables are commonly used to connect an external antenna to a mini-PCB.
The new RF cable assemblies from Pasternack include 40 unique configurations with multiple coax options including 0.81mm, 1.13mm, 1.37mm, RG178 and double shielded RG178 (RG178-DS). Both in-series and between-series cables are available in this release and the miniature UMCX, WMCX and HMCX32 snap-on connectors have mated connection heights ranging from 1.2mm to 2.5mm. Pasternack’s new UMCX and WMCX cable jumpers are compatible with Hirose® U.FL™ and W.FL™ connectors respectively.

Ultra-miniature UMCX, WMCX and HMCX32 cable assemblies from Pasternack are offered in standard lengths from stock while custom lengths and special configurations are available upon request. Custom cables can be assembled from the UMCX 2.5 series using RG178 coax with more than a hundred compatible connector options that can be selected from Pasternack’s catalog of coaxial connectors. Each of the new cable assemblies in this offering are 100% RF and continuity tested prior to shipment.

“Pasternack is continually expanding its industry leading offering of coaxial cable assemblies, and the addition of these new ultra-miniature cables gives design engineers an even greater variety of popular configurations to choose from,” says Steve Ellis, Interconnect Product Manager at Pasternack. “The low profile connectors on these cables are perfect for connecting to miniature circuit boards found in many of today’s wireless equipment.”
