This cable is high-performance 240 series 50 Ohm coaxial cable that features a solid copper center conductor and a durable TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomer) jacket designed for maximum flexibility.
This cable is ideal for installations requiring greater flexibility than standard 400 type cables. It is easier to make curves and bends, and it does not remain rigid as as 400 cable would. .
This high-performance low loss cable features similar quality construction and electrical performance to Times Microwave LMR©-240- and Commscope CNT©-240 It is also a flexible high-performance alternative to RG-8X.
These high quality low loss 240-series cables feature UHF Male (PL-259) connectors on both ends.
