astro-TC

high frequency/general purpose
coaxial test cable assemblies

Product Description
Astrolab, Inc. coaxial test cable assemblies are high frequency, low loss cables which are triple shielded for superior RF isolation. Stainless steel outer braid provides higher pull strength and lighter weight than RG style cable. Nomex and polyolefin jackets are also available.

Application Requirements
Astrolab will study any special environmental, quality and
design requirement to
determine the candidate
materials and processes which
will result in the highest
probability of success.

*Phase Stable cable assemblies: Defined as flexing the cable 0° to 180° for 800 flexes, around a 2 inch radius, phase will change less than 3 degrees at 18 GHz with normalizing phase between every 100 flexes. For a single bend of 5 inch radius, phase will change < 0.1° /GHz.
