Semi-Flex Conformable® Low Loss Coax Cable Assemblies

Semi-Flex Conformable® Low Loss Coax Cable Assemblies

Cross RF provides the hand conformable flexible alternative to standard 047, 085, 141 and 250 semi rigid coax.

Utilizing a unique copper-tin composite shield and a durable, well performing Teflon dielectric, this cable is easy to bend by hand. Conformable coax cable assemblies are ideal for prototypes, aerospace, commercial or military and microwave equipment in the developing phase, but you still require the benefit of a phase stable, low loss cable that will exhibit electrical properties comparable with the final design.

You may easily manipulate multiple times the cable to accommodate design changes, and when necessary change the cable shape. It can be configured with your choice of connectors including: MCX, MMCX, SMA, SMB, SMC, TNC, and N.
