RG 58 C/U 50 Ω

Application

Coaxial cables are applied for broadband transmission of radio, TV, video and data signals. Applicable up to GHz-a level, with low attenuation and low signal distortion. RG58 coaxial cable is applied for inst. in two-way radio systems and for connection of measurement equipment. Earlier applied as Ethernet cable, which was replaced with CAT 5e cable. Polyethylene of low dielectric constant enables high-speed signal diffusion and good flexibility at installation. Permitted only indoor application, exceptionally also outdoor, under protection against sunlight.

Standards

MIL-C-17F
MIL-C-17G

Construction

Concentric conductors, insulation (dielectric) and sheath. Cable retains its function if inner and external conductor are at exact constant distance, without any cable bending.
Inner conductor: tinned copper, fine wired stranded, diameter 0,9 ± 0,01 mm, 19 x 0,18 mm
Insulation (dielectric): polyethylene, external diameter 2,95 ± 0,05 mm
External conductor: braid of tinned copper wires 0,10 mm, 96% optical overlap
Sheath: PVC, external diameter 4,95 ± 0,10 mm
sheath colour: black
