Description
These new high performance flexible cables are made using our PE-141FLEX coax and our new low profile connectors. The
high performance flexible design is well suited for connecting RF devices in rack-mount systems, inside RF equipment and for
general lab hookup where a more expensive test cable is not required. These cables are similar to the PE30X series which
have retractable coupling nuts and thick wall SMA connectors. The heavier duty PE35X test series cables have similar per-
formance, but include a heavy duty strain relief mechanism and extra booting material as well as a thick wall SMA connector
to increase the ruggedness of the PE35X cables for use in more demanding test environments.
PE-141FLEX is a flexible cable alternate to Semi Rigid coax and has a solid PTFE resulting in a 69.5% phase velocity. The
smooth wall formed by the Braid over Spiral Ribbon design allows for a flexible cable that has similar performance to a solid
wall 141 Semi Rigid (RG402) cable.
