The difference between single wire and stranded wire

Corrugated Cable – Cellflex®

Wellmantelkabel Cellflex

Corrugated cables with low loss properties, such as the Cellflex® variants, are usually also referred to as semi-flexible cables. In addition to a strong electrical performance, they also have an extremely robust design, which makes them ideal for applications in radio systems. Due to their PE jacket, they can also be used outdoors, where they are used for mobile phone base stations, HD TV and mobile internet, among other things.

We have moved

arnotec GmbH has moved! Since mid-September the supplier for the electrical industry has been in its new premises in Grünhutstraße 7 in Karlsruhe-Knielingen.

For years, arnotec, whose brands also include koax24, has been experiencing steady growth – also in terms of the number of employees. For this very reason, we reached our limits with the capacity of the former offices and production hall. A move became unavoidable and in mid-September the time had finally come: after the production had already moved into the new hall, the administration also moved into the new offices.

The move to our …

Fire properties of coaxial cables

Many coaxial cables are designed to withstand high temperatures of up to 200°C without damage. These usually have a dielectric made of PTFE and an outer sheath made of FEB, PFA or PTFE. Cables with a dielectric and sheath made of Kapton are even temperature-resistant up to 250°C.

 

Please note: If temperature-resistant cables are assembled with the matching connectors and bend protectors, the maximum temperature is always that of the component with the lowest temperature resistance. If the coaxial cable is suitable for temperatures up to 200°C, but the connectors are only suitable for temperatures up to 100°C, the …
