StripFlex II cables provide the ultimate performance in a flexible cable.
• Lower loss microwave interconnect
• Wireless base station interconnect
• Excellent connector selection
Features & Benefits
• Lower Loss than M17/RG Versions
• Superior Shielding Effectiveness
• Stable Loss & VSWR vs Flexing
• Readily Available RG Type Connectors
StripFlex cables are identical in materials and con-struction to their M17/RG predecessors, with the exception of the outer conductor. The StripFlex shielding system, pioneered by Times Microwave Systems in the mid-sixties, consists of an inner silver plated flat ribbon braid (FSC), a spirally applied and overlapped composite aluminum tape interlayer (Intl), and an overall silver plated round wire braid (SC). The StripFlex shield affords approximately 15% lower loss and >95 dB shielding compared with the typical M17/RG round wire braided shield (40 to 60 dB).Standard M17/RG cables are shielded with high coverage single or double round wire braids. While these shields provide 40 dB and 60 dB shielding effectiveness respectively, they are not particularly
