astro-STEEL-flex®
l
Cable Types: 32041, 32086, 32081, 32027, 32019, 32039
High
performance/high pull strength microwave coaxial cables
PRODUCT
DESCRIPTION
astro-STEEL-flex®
l cables are lightweight flexible replacements to semi-rigid cable. All utilize
triple shields for superior RF shielding, with a solid TFE dielectric for
exceptional crush resistance without the need for heavy armor. The flat wire
braid outer conductor provides low loss plus excellent Insertion Loss stability
with flexure. The stainless steel outer braid provides improved mechanical pull
strength when compared to cables with a copper wire outer braid.
