XX= cable length in inches
• Low insertion loss
Product Overview
141-SBSM+ series Hand-Flex coaxial cables are ideal for integrating coaxial components and sub-assemblies in
tight spaces and dense system configurations. SMA-female bulkhead connector at one end is equipped with a
nickel-plated brass flange for secure connections directly to equipment housing panels. SMA-male connector has
a passivated stainless-steel coupling nut over a gold-plated connector body. The outer shield is tin-soaked copper
braid, which minimizes signal leakage with high flexibility for easy bending, and dielectric is low loss PTFE.
141 SBSM model series Hand-Flex coaxial cables are available in various lengths for different system requirements.
Key Features
Feature
Advantages
Eliminates the need for a bulkhead adapter and connects directly to the front panel of rack-
mounted equipment, improving reliability and reducing system cost.
Single SMA-female bulkhead connector
Hand-Flex cables avoid the need for special cable bending tools, alleviating the risk of damage
during bending processes used in semi-rigid cable assemblies.
Hand-formable
8mm bend-radius
Ideal for making connections in tight spaces and dense system layouts.
Excellent return loss
• 38 dB at 6 GHz
• 31 dB at 18 GHz
Ideal for connecting a wide variety of RF components while minimizing VSWR ripple contribution
due to mating cables and connectors.
Good power handling capability
• 546W at 0.5 GHz
• 90W at 18 GHz
141 SBSM coaxial cables can support medium to high RF power levels and can be used in the
transmit path. (Power rating at sea-level).
Built-in anti-torque nut on SMA-male
connector
Anti-torque feature supports the SMA connector body during installation, preventing stress to the
connector/cable interface.
Good power handling
• 211W at 0.5 GHz
• 35W at 18 GHz
Supports medium to high RF power levels used in transmit paths.
