EAM's LMR Cable Assemblies Feature 1.15:1 VSWR Through 6 GHz

August 3, 2009

Electronic Assembly Manufacturing Inc. (EAM), an RF/microwave coaxial cable assembly supplier, announced the availability of LMR® cable assemblies featuring low VSWR. Measured performance for a 0.600" diameter, Type N assembly exhibits VSWR that remains below 1.15:1 for a frequency range through 6 GHz. EAM's LMR cable assemblies also offer high power handling capability through 6 GHz, and are available with outside diameters ranging from 0.100" through 0.600".

EAM’s LMR cable assemblies also exhibit low insertion loss, with typical performance of 11 dB per 100 ft. at 6 GHz for a cable assembly with 0.405" outer diameter. The 50 ohm LMR cable assemblies provide performance comparable to corrugated copper cables, while still offering the flexibility needed to simplify installation. They also exhibit lower loss and superior shielding effectiveness than similar size RG type braided cables.

EAM's LMR cable assemblies can be supplied with a variety of constructions, including polyethylene foam dielectric in a closed-cell design, interlayer aluminum composite tape bonded to the dielectric for high shielding (better than 90 dB), tinned copper outer braid, and a wide range of outer jacket types. Triple-shielded versions are also available. EAM's LMR cable assemblies can be terminated with a wide range of coaxial connectors, including Type N, TNC, UHF and 7/16 connectors.
