BluMark RF LogoBluMark RF high-frequency, low-loss 50 Ohm coax cables are available in eight size categories: 047, 086, 141, 130, 160, 200, 235, and 300. Standard jacket material is FEP. Radiation-resistant ETFE jacketing is also available for space applications. Triple-shielded high-performance cables have expanded ePTFE dielectric cores for low loss performance from DC to 40 GHz. Application selection is based on attenuation (loss budget), and compatibility with a particular RF / microwave connector type and size, as well as flexibility, EMI screening, weight considerations, temperature tolerance, and altitude. Hermetic (vapor-sealed) configurations are supplied for harsh-environment aerospace applications. All cable designs are available with industry-leading short lead-times and may be specified as turnkey point-to-point jumpers.
