electrical stability ultimate utiflex can be bent and flexed during testing while maintaining its rock-solid electrical performance each ultimate utiflex cable assembly is tested for phase and amplitude stability by bending the cable around a mandrel at the minimum bend diameter and measuring the change in both phase and insertion loss from the normal at-rest position guaranteed performance specifications are detailed in the graphs to the right log magnitude ref 0.000° db 0.100° db/div phase ref 0.00° 1.00° /div 0.0400000 ghz 18.0000000 0.0400000 ghz 18.0000000 amplitude stability during flexure phase stability during flexure mechanical durability ultimate utiflex employs a unique armoring system that remains both rugged and flexible the armoring offers substantial mechanical protection from kinks dents and other occasional damage that can occur on the rf test bench with no change in electrical performance key characteristics include · 1000 lbs per linear inch crush resistance · tensile load of 100 lbs in a static test · torsional resistance ufx65-z-24-c00c10 frequency dc-65 ghz length 36 24 18 `v connectors c00 1.85 mm plug c10 1.85 mm jack ufx40-z-24-200210 frequency dc-40 ghz length 36 24 18 `k connectors 200 2.92 mm plug 210 2.92 mm jack proven and tested performance all cables manufactured by micro-coax have undergone some of the most stringent quality testing in the industry mechanical tests such as flex testing tensile testing vibration and other environmental tests are performed on our cable designs to ensure compliance with our performance specifications performance criteria electrical frequency range phase stability amplitude stability mechanical flex life minimum bend radius operating temperature tensile load crush resistance specification requirement dc 65 ghz ± 3° ± 0.10 db 100,000 flexures 1.5 inches ambient laboratory conditions 100 lbs 10 lb 1000 lbs/linear inch 24 inch assembly tested 18 ghz 25°c micro-coax 206 jones blvd pottstown pa 19464-3465 usa 610-495-0110 www.micro-coax.com rosenberger micro-coax 2b mercury calleva park aldermaston berkshire rg7 8en england 0 118-981-0023 the information contained in this data sheet is subject to change without notice ©2003 micro-coax.
