1 VNA/NA Coaxial Test Cable Assemblies

2 VNA/NA Coaxial Test Cable Assemblies, specifically designed for the Test & Measurement market. Ideal for making precise RF measurements where phase, low insertion loss, and repeatability are needed. Features and Benefits miths Interconnect s /-F product portfolio provides customers with a VNA/NA grade solution for test applications requiring signal stability and repeatability. The combination of consistent performance and high reliability products translates to lower cost of ownership while improving testing performance. The benefits enable customers to be more competitive with support of an established technology partner. The /-F cables are designed specifically to minimize phase change and demonstrate precision repeatability when subjected to a wide range of testing parameters. They also have a very stable nature around room temperature. As such, Test & Measurement applications are ideal for this product line. Up to GHz % lower loss than olid TFE dielectrics Measurement Repeatability and tability hased Matched airs and ets Available (standard tolerance is +/- one degree per GHz or +/-.8 picoseconds) Applications Test & Measurement The is a emi-rigid assembly with armor for precision phase measurements. The -F, while keeping most of this precision, allows for more dynamic movement during the measurement process due to its flexible cable. Repeatability is the main goal for both cables. The attenuation is reduced to a minimum with low loss TFE dielectrics found in both cables. Cables can be manufactured with NMD connectors in order to attach directly to analyzer ports. Over the years, these characteristics have earned /-F cables an excellent reputation for use in Test & Measurement environments. Test reports are available on request.
