Description

Vinstronics’ DC – 18 GHz SMA Male to SSMP Female Phase Stable Super Flexible Cable Assembly is a high – performance solution designed for demanding applications. It features an SMA male straight connector made of stainless steel and an SSMP female connector with brass gold plating. The cable has a jacket size of 1.5mm and a W15 construction. It offers low attenuation of 4.99db/meter at 18GHz and maintains a consistent 50Ohm impedance. The cable’s static bending radius is 8mm, and its dynamic bending radius is 15mm. It has a wide frequency range of DC to 18GHz and a VSWR of less than 1.25 at 18GHz. The time delay is matched within ±1ps, and it exhibits excellent temperature phase stability of less than 1000PPM from – 55°C to 85°C.

This cable assembly from Vinstronics is ideal for applications that require high – frequency performance and mechanical flexibility. Its phase – stable and super – flexible design ensures reliable signal transmission even in tight spaces or under repeated bending. The combination of low attenuation and tight VSWR control helps minimize signal loss and distortion. The temperature phase stability ensures consistent performance across a wide temperature range, making it suitable for various environmental conditions. With its superior specifications and robust construction, this cable assembly is a reliable choice for high – performance systems.
