Interconnect solutions provider Molex Incorporated has released a new line of microwave cable assemblies equipped that utilizes its Temp-Flex™ air-dielectric ultra-low-loss flexible microwave coaxial cables.
Developed for device manufacturers specifying microwave coaxial cables in high frequency aerospace, defense and commercial applications, the Temp-Flex air-dielectric ultra-low-loss flexible microwave coaxial cables achieve 85 to 88 percent velocity of propagation (VOP) for increased signal speed and feature a patented dual monofilament air-enhanced design and a helically wrapped shield. The flexible microwave coaxial cables offer 100 dB or greater shielding effectiveness and protect signals from both internal and external interference.
“Meeting requirements for strong signal performance with limited signal loss is a growing challenge in high-frequency applications,” Jeet Sanyal, engineering manager of Temp-Flex, said. “[The] Temp-Flex microwave coaxial cables deliver up to 88 percent VOP, exceeding stringent aerospace and defense specifications while achieving optimum phase stability and bandwidth.”
“Flexible Temp-Flex microwave coaxial cables surpass performance criteria in the marketplace for VOP results, tight dimensional and electrical control, minimum VSWR and low insertion loss.”
Temp-Flex air-dielectric ultra-low-loss flexible microwave coaxial cables are now available as assemblies from Molex in select cable sizes and connector types.
