These
system cables are made with our industry-leading
GrooveTube® and are used in any application
where low loss and/or phase stability are critical.
Uses include Phased Array Radar,Electronic Warfare Radar systems, antenna feed
cables, EMC lab test cables and high reliability interconnects. Our GrooveTube® is
a rugged construction which resists torque, pull and crush forces. |
