WL Gore Phaseflex microwave/RF test cable assembly range

A rugged 18 GHz cable assembly has been added to the Phaseflex Microwave/RF test assemblies range. The assembly is specifically engineered for high throughput production test applications in the wireless infrastructure market.

The increased durability reduces total costs because it lasts longer and its stable performance ensures precise measurements and repeatability.

The ergonomic design of the assembly eliminates the need to use a torque wrench to connect and disconnect accurately.

The connectors minimise failure by incorporating maximum strain relief at the point where the cable and connector meet. The assembly’s internally ruggedised construction is more durable, delivering crush resistance of 85 kg/cm.

Available in 1.0 and 1.5 m lengths with both SMA and N-type male connectors, the cable is easier for the operator to use because it is small and lightweight and can be connected and disconnected manually. The assemblies withstand 100,000 flexures at a minimum bend radius of 2.4 cm.
