W. L. Gore & Associates has added a rugged 18 GHz cable assembly to its GORE PHASEFLEX microwave/RF test assemblies line.
This rugged cable assembly is specifically engineered for high-throughput production test applications in the wireless infrastructure market.
The increased durability of this assembly reduces total costs for testing because it lasts longer, decreasing the frequency of cable assembly replacements. Its stable performance ensures precise measurements and repeatability, which reduces the risk of testing errors and the need for time-consuming troubleshooting and system calibration. In addition, the ergonomic design eliminates the need to use a torque wrench to connect and disconnect accurately, which increases throughput on the manufacturing line.
The robust connectors on these assemblies minimise failure by incorporating maximum strain relief at the point where the cable and connector meet. The assembly’s internally ruggedised construction is highly durable, delivering crush resistance of 85 kg/cm.
Available in 1 and 1,5 metre lengths with both SMA and N-type male connectors, the cable assembly is easy for the operator to use because it is small and lightweight, and it can be connected and disconnected manually. These assemblies withstand 100 000 flexures at a minimum bend radius of 2,5 cm. Like all PHASEFLEX microwave/RF test assemblies, this one is engineered to withstand the frequent torque and bending that is common to testing environments on the manufacturing floor.
