HAND TM 086-SBSMR+ Model Series Coaxial Cable 50 DC t o 18 GHz The Big Deal Hand-formable with 6mm bend radius CASE STYLE: KP1680 SMA-M right-angle to SMA-F bulkhead connectors Excellent return and insertion loss Ideal for assembled systems Product Overview 086-SBSMR+ Series Hand-Flex coaxial cables are ideal for interconnecting coaxial components and sub-assemblies in a wide range of systems, including communications, military and aerospace, environmental and test chamber systems and more. The hand-formable cable provides a minimum bend radius of 6mm to accommodate tight layouts without the need for bending tools, adapters or brackets. SMA right angle to SMA bulkhead connectors make these cables ideal for perpendicular connections run directly to the front panel of rack-mounted equipment. The connectors feature an anti-torque nut to prevent cable stress during installation and an insulated outer jacket to minimize signal leakage. They are available in a range of lengths to meet a variety of connection requirements. Feature Advantages Facilitates the assembly of coaxial systems and sub-systems without the need for special cable-bending tools Hand-formable RF cables or adapters. Reduces the risk of damage during bending. Tight bend-radius 6mm bend-radius makes the cable ideal for connections in tight spaces and crowded layouts. 18 GHz right-angle SMA connector Meets requirements of 90connections without bending and without sacri cing high-frequency performance. 18 GHz SMA bulkhead connector Ideal for making secure connections directly through equipment chassis panels. Excellent return loss Suitable for interconnecting a variety of RF components while minimizing VSWR ripple contribution. Good power handling 211 W at 0.5 GHz Supports medium to high RF power levels used in transmit paths. 35 at 18 GHz Anti-torque nut Reduces risk of twist damage to cable during installation. Notes A.
