Impact of Materials on Microwave Cable Performance

Cables are often the last component considered during system designs. In many situations, cables are the system’s lifeline. For example, if the cable system used for data transmission in a spacecraft fails, the communication between the craft and the g...
The environments in which microwave cable assemblies are being used are becoming more challenging with exposure to such conditions as extreme temperatures, chemicals, abrasion and flexing. Additional challenges include the need for smaller, lighter packaging for cable systems that last longer and cost less. To ensure signal integrity and...
