If you deal with the subject of cables, sooner or later you will come across the terms wire and stranded wire. But what exactly is the difference and what are the advantages and disadvantages? This article takes a closer look at the main features of wires and strands and highlights the different areas of application and their advantages.
What it’s all about: Wire and strand usually describe the inner conductor of a cable through which electrical signals are transmitted. In order to protect the signal transmission and minimise loss over distances, this inner conductor is protected with a sheath and …
Miniature coaxial high-voltage connectors are also known as MHV connectors. When mated, they have a test voltage of 5 kV rms and an operating voltage of up to 1.6 kV rms. They are also designed for applications up to 300 MHz.
MHV-connectors are based on the construction of BNC connectors, but they have protrusive insulators, what leads to a slight protection against contact of conductors under voltage in an uncoupled condition
For a maximum contact protection of uncoupled connectors, the connector series SHV is recommended.
Our complete MHV range is available via our online shop.
The Aircell 5 Heatexcable is suitable for a frequency range up to 10 GHz. The RF conductor has a limited flexibility and is recommended for wireless communication applications. Unlike the Aircell 5, the Heatex has a halogen-free jacket. Moreover, this cable is certified for railroad applications according to the requirement sets R15 and R16 of the EN 45545-2 standard.
The good attenuation values are achieved by a low-loss PE dielectric medium with a gas content of more than 70%, as well as by the inner conductor and the double shielding from pure copper.
TheAircell 7 Heatex cable is suitable for a frequency range up to 6 GHz. The RF line is flexible and recommended for wireless communication applications. Unlike the Aircell 7, the Heatex has a halogen-free sheath.
The good attenuation values are achieved by a low-loss PE dielectric with an air content of more than 70%, as well as by the inner conductor and the double shielding from pure copper.
Areas of application: Communications and radio technology
Aircell 7 Heatex: (Colour: black) 50 Ω; LowLoss Temperature range from -40°C to +80°C
The Ecoflex 10 Plus Heatex cable is suitable for a frequency range up to 8 GHz. The RF line is flexible and recommended for wireless communication applications. Unlike the Ecoflex 10 Plus, the Heatex has a halogen-freesheath. Moreover, this cable is certified for railroad applications according to the requirement sets R15 and R16 of the EN 45545-2 standard.
The good attenuation values of the Ecoflex 10 Plus Heatex as a low-loss cable are due to a low-loss PE dielectric with more than 70% air content as well as the inner conductor and a double shielding made of …
