1-5/8" Non-Flanged Coax Components

NOTES
  • All 1-5/8" components meet EIA standards for inner and outer conductor dimensions for 50-Ω components.
  • All insulators are made from virgin PTFE.
  • See technical bulletin "tb-linespecs" for complete transmission line specifications.
  • See technical bulletin "tb-coax_cutback" for inner to outer cutback dimensions.

Performance:

Dimensions:
Impedance: 50 ohms Outer Conductor Outside diameter: 1.625" (4.1 cm)
Maximum Frequency: 3000 MHz Inside diameter: 1.527" (3.9 cm)
Velocity Percent: 99.8% Inner Conductor Outside diameter: 0.664" (1.7 cm)

Transmission Line
Non-flanged both ends

Each transmission line section comes without hardware or connectors. Insulators are placed approximately 24 " apart to prevent the inner conductor from sagging.
