High-frequency cable assemblies for instrumentation IoT and 5G applications

Mouser now offers Molex's new Cardinal Test high-frequency cable assemblies. These cable assemblies set a new industry standard for testing and instrumentation, IoT, wireless, high-speed data transmission, and 5G applications.

The cable assemblies are based on high-performance microwave interconnection technology, serving frequencies from 18GHz to 110GHz using 1mm connectors and providing the highest frequency available. Offered in high-durability 2.4mm, 3.5mm and 1.85mm plug and jack options in standard and ruggedised phase-stable and low-loss configurations, these cable assemblies deliver robust capabilities for accurate results that are highly flexible and pinch-resistant.

The cable assemblies supply low density and a low dielectric constant with a propagation velocity of up to 80% due to low attenuation. With an impedance tolerance of +1%, these cable assemblies offer the lowest possible VSWR along the transmission path and for the assembly.

Molex delivers further design flexibility for the user's specific test and measurement needs with custom lengths and configurations accompanied by actual test data for every cable, like insertion loss and high phase amplitude stability, to ensure the highest quality. Mouser carries an extensive portfolio of the company's products, with over 120,000 different parts available to order.
