Radiall/Larsen offers a full selection of quality cables in popular RG174,
RG58 and RG8 sizes. Cables are produced to exact specifications by
recognized suppliers including Belden.
Lower loss means better reception and performance. Radiall/Larsen is
continually searching for the best cable and connector designs that will
yield superior performance at a reasonable price. Why cable and
connectors? Because Radiall/Larsen believes that to truly design the best
antenna system, all components must “perform in unison”. This includes
the whip, coil, base, mounting hardware, cables, and connectors.
In this section, you will find a wide array of cables and connectors that
will suit your needs no matter what your specific application might be.
Please be sure to consider such parameters as acceptable loss, noise, and
connector type when making your selection.
RG-174
| Small
Diameter Coax |
RG-174
is the industry standard for applications requiring a
small diameter, highly flexible coax. Frequently used in
mobile mag mount applications. Subject to higher losses at
higher frequencies. Good performance for environmental
variations but lower in overall ruggedness.
|
|
RG-58A/U
Radiall/Larsen
CX standard Coax |
| The
industry standard in quality, value priced coax. Stranded
center conductor offers good flexibility and long-life
under most conditions. Not typically recommended for
applications above 512 MHz due to higher losses. Uses
standard RG58 connectors. |
|

|
RG-58A/U
| “Digi-Shield”™
Low Loss Braided Center |
| This
A/U Coax employs two shields, consisting of a full
aluminum/mylar wrap covered by a braid. This combination
of shields, plus low-loss dielectric material and stranded
center conductor makes an excellent choice for mobile
applications. Performance features include low-loss and
high flexibility. Uses standard RG58 connectors. |
|
RG-58U
| Low
Loss Dual Shield w/ Solid Center Conductor (UD) |
| This
is Larsen’s premium coax for 800 & 900 MHz
applications. The solid center conductor, (20 AWG) is easy
to use with all connectors. Digital applications benefit
from the 100% Duofoil aluminum shield. The shield is not
glued to the dielectric making it easier to peel back for
connector installation. The braid is 95% coverage. This
cable is standard for most mounting kits over 800 MHz and
can be special ordered with other frequencies. Uses
standard RG58 connectors. |
|
RG-58A/U
| Dual
Shield Coax for High Temperature Applications |
| By
adding an additional Teflon shield, this cable design
(based on the UD coax construction) high excellent
resistance to heat and very high mechanical durability.
The solid center conductor, (20 AWG) is easy to use with
all connectors. Digital applications benefit from the 100%
Duofoil aluminum shield. The shield is not glued to the
dielectric making it easier to peel back for connector
installation. The braid is 95% coverage. Uses standard
RG58 connectors. |

Radiall/Larsen
SMA Connectors are semi-precision, sub-miniature, high frequency
connectors that offer reliable broadband performance DC to 18 GHz
with low reflection and constant 50-ohm impedance. Primary
features include high mechanical strength and durability, and low
VSWR.
Radiall/Larsen offers SMA connectors for RG58 and RG174 coaxial
cable types. |
