Rugged HT cable suited to defence applications
Quadrant Connections
Speedfoam 240 HT and 400 HT cables
Quadrant Connections has expanded its stock with the introduction of Habla's MoD-approved Speedfoam 240 HT and 400 HT low-loss, high-power RF coaxial cables, designed for use in armoured vehicles.
Having higher power capacity than contemporary coaxial cable types, coupled with reduced attenuation at higher frequencies, both types are suited for use in all RF systems that require high-power and low-loss coaxial cables such as armoured vehicles and land systems.
Speedfoam 240 HT has a power rating of 680W at 450MHz while the Speedfoam 400 HT is 1,820W.
The higher temperature rating, and therefore higher power rating, of Speedfoam HT cable is due to the use of a low-density PTFE dielectric as opposed to the foamed polyethylene (PE) used in standard cables of this type.
The new dialectic also reduces attenuation, especially at higher frequencies.
