Coax test cables
8 August 2012
Interconnection
Webb Industries has added the Silverline-TG (TuffGrip) test cable, designed for sweep testing cellular infrastructure site cables and antennas, to its Times Microwave Silverline range of coax cables.
TuffGrip, whose unique features were designed by field technicians for field technicians, employs a hefty handgrip at the system-end to better withstand the rigours of field work. It meets the demands of repeated mating and unmating to cell tower cables with connectors that may have degraded from exposure.
The robust handgrip allows the user to apply as much resistance as necessary to properly torque the system cable connector, while preventing excess torque from being applied to the high-performance test cable. A proper connection may thus be made quickly with a single wrench.
TuffGrip test cables are double steel armoured and anti-torqueing, yet they are highly flexible. All connectors are stainless steel for thousands of mating cycles. Other features include a >50 000 flex life cable for added assurance, permanently attached heavy-duty protective caps and high-frequency operation to meet future needs.
