RF Industries Introduces UHF Connectors for Heliax Cable

June 1, 2009

Availability of UHF connectors for LDF4-50A ½ inch Andrew Heliax® cable was limited to the secondary market when manufacturing ceased several years ago. The RF Connectors division of RF Industries has released UHF male and UHF female connectors for LDF4-50A ½ inch cable to fill that need. These connectors utilize the same installation process and tooling required for the discontinued connectors. Manufactured with white bronze plated, machined brass bodies, these new connectors feature silver plated phosphor bronze contacts and PTFE dielectric. White bronze is resistant to tarnish, but has high conductivity and low (IM) intermodulation. The male connector, RFU-502-H1, and the female connector, RFU-520-H1, also work with Andrew LDF-4-50A cable, Andrew LDF4-RN-50A cable, RFS 810918-001 cable, RFS LCF12-50J cable and Eupen 5128 cable.
