Custom RF Cabling

LMR cable is a low-loss coaxial cable. We currently only produce custom jumper assemblies that utilize LMR-195 or LMR-400 cabling. The primary feature of both of our cable options are their low dB losses, especially for high frequency radio, cellular, Wi-Fi, and GPS applications.

How do they compare? LMR-195 is 0.195 inches in diameter while LMR-400 coaxial cable is relatively heavy, with an outside diameter of 0.4 inches. While both are flexible, LMR-195 has a maximum recommended bend radius of 1/2 inch within fixed installations and 2 inches when unsecured vs LMR-400’s 1 inch (fixed) and 4 inches (unsecured). LMR-400 is more well suited for applications that exceed 50 feet. Accordingly, LMR-400 is more expensive, as it uses a larger amount of materials.

Depending upon your application, more specialized variants of LMR-195 and LMR-400 cables may be required. Both of these cables are available in flame-retardant models for installation within building vertical risers or where fire retardancy is critical (especially when dealing with IFC-510 and NFPA-72 mandated ERRCS applications).

They are also available in watertight, ultra-flex, low smoke zero halogen, and plenum rated versions to meet your organizations or industries specific safety requirements. If you’re unaware of the specific type of cabling your application requires, our expert solutions engineers can help you evaluate your project scope, including things like the area to be installed, your antennas power needs, the distance to be covered, signal strength requirements, and more to help you select the optimal cable type.
