1. Ultra-Low Loss LMR-195 Cable
Standard RG-58 cables suffer from significant signal degradation over distance. Our LMR-195 coaxial cable utilizes a foam PE dielectric and a double-shield design (foil + braid) to drastically reduce insertion loss. This ensures more of your RF power reaches the antenna, making it highly efficient for Wi-Fi, cellular, and ham radio applications.
2. Precision-Machined Connectors
N-Type Female Jack: Features a robust threaded coupling mechanism that provides excellent weatherproofing and vibration resistance, making it ideal for bulkhead panels, lightning arrestors, and outdoor antenna bases.
BNC Male Plug: Utilizes a secure bayonet lock for quick mating and unmating, perfect for connecting to radios, scanners, oscilloscopes, and indoor RF equipment.
3. Superior Shielding & Interference Rejection
The dual-shield architecture of the LMR-195 cable blocks external Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) and Radio Frequency Interference (RFI). This guarantees a clean signal path, which is critical in noisy industrial environments or dense urban RF landscapes.
4. UV and Weather Resistant
The outer PVC jacket is specifically formulated to resist UV degradation, moisture, and extreme temperatures. When properly mated and sealed, the N-Type connection can withstand harsh outdoor conditions, ensuring long-term reliability.
Wi-Fi & Wireless Networking: Extending 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz Wi-Fi antennas, access points, and wireless bridges.
Amateur (Ham) Radio: Connecting handheld transceivers, mobile radios, and base stations to external antennas.
Telecommunications: Cellular boosters, signal repeaters, and base station antenna feeds.
Test & Measurement: Adapting network analyzers, spectrum analyzers, and signal generators to various RF test fixtures.
GPS & GNSS Systems: Routing active GPS antenna signals to receivers in vehicles and marine vessels.
IoT & M2M: Connecting industrial routers and telemetry modules to external gain antennas.
1. Professional Assembly Process:
Every jumper cable is assembled by trained technicians using calibrated crimping and soldering tools. The center pin is precision-soldered to guarantee a solid electrical joint, while the outer braid is securely crimped to the connector body for optimal mechanical strength and grounding.
2. 100% Factory Testing:
Before packaging, each cable assembly undergoes strict quality control:
Continuity & Short Testing: Ensures no open circuits or internal shorts.
VNA Testing: Vector Network Analyzer sweeps verify VSWR and Insertion Loss parameters to ensure they meet 50 Ohm RF standards.
Individual Packaging: Each cable is neatly coiled and sealed in a protective, anti-static PE bag to prevent tangling and dust accumulation.
Labeling: Clear labels indicating connector types, cable model (LMR-195), and length.
Export Cartons: Packed in heavy-duty, double-walled corrugated boxes with protective dividers for safe international transit.
Lead Time: Standard orders ship within 5–7 business days. Custom lengths are available with a slightly extended production window.
Q1: What is the main advantage of LMR-195 over standard RG-58 cable?
A: While both cables share a similar outer diameter (approx. 5mm) and 50 Ohm impedance, LMR-195 uses a foam dielectric and double shielding. This results in roughly 40% less signal loss (attenuation) at high frequencies compared to RG-58, allowing for longer cable runs without degrading the signal.
Q2: Can I use this cable for outdoor antenna installations?
A: Yes, the LMR-195 jacket is UV-resistant and designed for outdoor use. However, it is highly recommended to use weatherproofing tape or a sealant on the N-Type connection point to prevent moisture ingress over time.
Q3: Is this cable suitable for high-power transmission?
A: LMR-195 is rated for moderate power levels. It is perfectly suited for receiving antennas, Wi-Fi, ham radio (up to 50-100W depending on frequency), and cellular boosters. For high-power broadcast transmitters, thicker cables like LMR-400 or LMR-600 are recommended.
Q4: Are custom lengths available?
A: Yes. As a direct manufacturer, we provide custom-length pigtail and jumper cables to fit your exact installation requirements. Please specify your desired length when submitting your inquiry.
Q5: Will the N-Type female connector fit a standard N-Type male antenna?
A: Yes, the N-Type Female Jack is a standard interface and will thread perfectly onto any standard N-Type Male plug found on most outdoor antennas, lightning protectors, and bulkhead adapters.
