Details

Cobham has extended its family of high-performance, lightweight cables to include five new cable types covering a variety of outer diameter sizes and constructions. The Cobham FA20RXLW, FA29RXLW, FA46RXLW, FN49RXLW and FN52RLLW augment the company's successful FN34RXLW cable line and are ideally suited for use in electronic defense, launch vehicles, commercial aviation, space/satellites and other general purpose military applications.

Each of the new cables offers a 25-31% weight savings over traditional construction with no change in VSWR (Voltage Standing Wave Radio) or insertion loss. The new assemblies can also withstand the same harsh environments as Cobham traditional assemblies, including altitudes from ground-level to more than 70,000 feet and temperature variations from -55°C to +200°C. Complementing the lighter cables, all assemblies feature reduced weight and volume connectors which retain conventional ETNC, SMA and N interfaces while incorporating new materials. The new assemblies are also available in various outer diameters and numerous jacket materials. These products may be subject to US export compliance laws and regulations.
