WL Gore Phaseflex cable assembly

WL Gore has added a rugged 18 GHz cable assembly to its Phaseflex microwave/RF test assemblies range.

It is specifically engineered for high-throughput production test applications in the wireless infrastructure market.

The connectors on these assemblies minimise failure by incorporating maximum strain relief at the point where the cable and connector meet. The assembly’s internally ruggedised construction is more durable, delivering crush resistance of 85 kg/cm.

Available in 1.0 and 1.5 m lengths, with both SMA and N-type male connectors, the assembly is easier for the operator to use because it is small and lightweight and can be connected and disconnected manually.

The assemblies withstand 100,000 flexures at a minimum bend radius of 2.4 cm.
