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. |
