The High Performance, Low Loss, Phase Stable, Low Profile minibend®
Product Description
mini141® K is the 40 GHz. version of the mini141® with 2.9 mm plug commections on each end. mini141® K replaces custom length, predefined bend configuration .141 semi-rigid cable with true flexible, low loss microporous dielectric, phase stable coax cable for use as interconnections between RF modules in microwave systems.
Product Features
- Precision 2.9mm mini141® plug connectors (Patented - US Patent Office)
- Microporous dielectric for insertion loss lower than .141" semi-rigid cable
- Stock delivery on standard lengths
- Triple shielded for high isolation
|
- Eliminates need for costly right angle connectors
- Guaranteed 25 lbs. pull force
- Frequency range up to 40 GHz
- 99.9% lead free
- Low Cost

Phase Versus Flexure Reference Data
Astrolab performed phase tests on hundreds of mini141® K cable assemblies. Following are two standard Astrolab tests with the corresponding data. In test one, mini141® K-12 assembly's were flexed 90° in a 0.5 inch radius directly behind the connector. In test two, mini141® K-12 assembly's were flexed 180° with a 1.0 inch radius in the middle. Typical data is listed here:
