coaxial cables for satellite frequencies
I previously had a question on rf coaxial cables. Could you explain the frequency compatibility of certain cables like 400, 600 or 1200 series at satellite frequency ranges?
coaxial cables frequency compatibility
In satellite communication, we have the low noise amplifiers (LNA) and the low noise block converters (LNB) at the receiver on the dish. Since, we know an LNA will amplify the weakened satellite signal at the receiver without degrading the SNR value and
rf connector construction materials
Looking at the different options for miniature SMA connectors available, I can see we have gold and silver variants. This is with regards to construction. My reading shows that the contacts can be made of either nickel or gold, I've also seen beryllium
LMR cable degradation over time
For the LMR-400 series coax cables, what is the typical time frame I can use my cable for before starting to experience performance degradation? The installation would be in an external environment, so snow, cold, heat and rain are all factors to consider.
Reliable Coaxial Cable
Searching for a high-quality coaxial cable for my cellular antenna. With the different renown brands and even generic variants available, what recommendations would you make? I know of LMR from Times microwave.
UHF and N Connectors performance
Just seen a discussion somewhere on the pros and cons of these two crimp connectors. Is it true that UHF connectors performance deteriorates faster over time since they are not water-proof? For outdoor installations in this case. Also does this imply
Consideration for Coax Cable
A follow up to an earlier question is what should I consider when selecting a coaxial cable?
Coaxial Cables Degradation
I have an LMR 400 series (75ft. with a surge device just before it enters the house) cable in use for about 2 years now, does the cable degrade over time and if so what are the timelines I should work with before having it replaced?
Coaxial Cables
What is the difference between coaxial, triaxial, and twinaxial cable? Is the construction the same?
coax cable input impedances (50 and 75 Ohm)
What would happen if use 50ohm connectors for a 75ohm coax cable? Do a best case not a worst case.
400 series cable Standard and Ultraflex
I am doing an antenna run installation, I need about 50ft of the LMR400 cable. Would it make sense to use the standard cable or the ultra-flex for a neater installation? I'm also open to using the 600 series.
Murata HSC similar to I-PEX MHF4
Hello, I have a wireless router that requires an external antenna pigtail with a Murata HSC connector for its RF connection. I have done some shopping around and some sites have the connector as MHF4. I'm curious about the similarities between these two
