FX18

FX18 is a flexible RF cable for applications from DC to 18 GHz. Its stranded centre conductor supports applications involving cable movement and repeated handling, with typical attenuation of 0.82 dB/m at 18 GHz.

The minimum bend radius is 40 mm for a single bend and 80 mm for repeated bending. For moving installations, specify the motion profile, bend geometry and required service life so that the assembly can be reviewed against the application.
