The A-CRF-NMNM-LL4-600 from Moxa is an RF connection cable with a length of 6 metres, specifically designed for the transmission of high-frequency signals in industrial and wireless networks. It features N-type connectors (male to male) at both ends and is based on the LMR-400 Lite cable type, designed for reliable and low-impedance signal transmission. The impedance is 50 Ohm, ensuring optimal matching to standard RF systems. The cable is suitable for use in wireless networks, antenna technology, and RF measurement technology, where high signal integrity is required.
Applications
This cable is suitable for industrial applications in indoor and outdoor environments, particularly in settings with high mechanical and thermal stress. Due to its extended operating temperature range of -40 to 85 °C, it can also be used under extreme climatic conditions. Its robust construction makes it suitable for use in telecommunications, radio systems, automation technology, or security systems, where a stable RF connection over long distances is required.
Functions and Equipment in Detail
The cable has an outer diameter of 10.29 mm and a minimum bending radius of 24.5 mm, enabling flexible installation even in confined spaces. The use of N-type connectors (male to male) ensures a secure and mechanically stable connection. The connectors are designed for RF applications and support the transmission of high-frequency signals without significant signal loss.
Technology Explained Simply
The electrical properties of the cable are optimized for high signal quality. The insertion loss is maximally -2.8 dB, meaning signal loss over the 6-metre length remains low. The VSWR value (voltage standing wave ratio) is maximally 1.7:1 in the frequency range of 5150 to 5875 MHz, indicating good impedance matching and minimal reflections. These values are critical for signal integrity in high-frequency applications, particularly in the 5-GHz bandwidth.
Compatibility and Accessories
The cable is compatible with standard RF systems requiring 50 Ohm impedance. It can be connected to other RF components such as antennas, amplifiers, or radio modules that also use N-type connectors. Its use in wireless networks, especially in the 5-GHz band, is particularly suitable due to the specific frequency bandwidth and low attenuation.
Installation and Mounting
Installation is performed by simply connecting the N-type connectors to the respective devices. Due to the minimum bending radius of 24.5 mm, the cable can be routed even in tight curves without impairing its electrical properties. The mechanical robustness of the cable allows for permanent installation in industrial environments.
Operational Advantages
The combination of low insertion loss, high VSWR value, and a wide temperature range ensures reliable signal transmission over the entire cable length. The use of the LMR-400 Lite cable type guarantees high quality and durability. The cable is designed for use in demanding environments where a stable RF connection over long distances is required.
