18 GHz 086 Low-Attenuation CuNi Cryogenic RF Coaxial Cable G22-CN
P/N: G22-CN
- For longer cryogenic RF signal paths
- Lower attenuation for low-temperature routing
- 2.15 mm OD supports stable cable runs
- Suited to quantum and dilution systems
- Rated to 18 GHz for cable selection
Engineering Note
The G22-CN is a 2.15 mm OD copper nickel cryogenic RF coaxial cable designed for longer lower-loss low-temperature RF routing. Its construction uses a silver-plated CuNi inner conductor, PTFE dielectric, and CuNi tube outer conductor, supporting cryogenic RF paths where lower attenuation is required over longer cable runs. The 18 GHz operating frequency is intended for preliminary cable selection; final assembly performance may depend on connector interface, cable length, routing form, thermal anchoring, and operating temperature stages.
