Gepco Broadband coaxial cables feature exceptional per-
formance in multiple RG and UL types for Broadband
cable and MATV applications. The Broadband series
has a gas-injected foam polyethylene dielectric that
significantly lowers attenuation and return loss,
yet is crush resistant and durable. For the cen-
ter conductor element, a copper-clad steel
conductor is used. This conductor type has
excellent strength and is ideal for terminat-
ing with standard F-type connectors that
utilize the center conductor as the con-
nector pin. To provide comprehensive
EMI and RF shielding, Broadband coax
features either dual (foil & braid) or
quad shielding in a variety of cover-
age amounts.
