RF Coaxial Cables

A	TNC - Threaded Neill-Concelman - Threaded Version of a BNC (Bayonet Style). A TNC can
	be either 50Ω or 75Ω Impedance, but most applications will call for a 50Ω Impedance. The
	TNC has great performance at microwave frequencies.
B	ÒNÓ Type - Neill Connector - Threaded RF connector. The ÒNÓ Type connector is used for mi-
	crowave frequencies.
C	UHF and/or Mini UHF - Threaded RF connector. The UHF connector is used widely in band
	radio frequencies.

RF 50Ω Coaxial cables are designed and intended to carry power and voltage. 50Ω is a compomise in the impedance of the cable to allow these functions to be performed.

50Ω cables can range in their impedance from 47Ω to 52Ω. There is not an ideal impedance, but 50Ω has been set for a performance benchmark.

There are many 50Ω applications:

¥RF - Radio

¥Low Power

¥Emergency Antenna

¥Repeater/Translator

¥Television

¥Low Power

¥Repeater/Translator

¥STL - Studio Transmitter Link

¥Microwave Links

¥RPU - Remote Program Units

West Penn Wire offers a line of RG8/U, RG8x/U, and RG58/U - 50Ω coaxial cables. Also included are 50Ω BNC, TNC, N and UHF Connectors, Adapters, and Cable Assemblies.
