Corrugated Coaxial Cables

High Power, Low Loss Corrugated Coaxial Cables for Reliable RF Transmission

RF systems rely on a strong, stable link between the antenna and the equipment. However, when a cable loses signal, distorts under power, or cracks in harsh weather, that link — and overall system performance — can suffer.

Our corrugated coaxial cable assemblies are built to handle that demand. A corrugated copper outer conductor gives the cable the flexibility to bend around tight corners without kinking, while a foamed PTFE dielectric and multi-strand bare copper inner conductor help keep loss low and signal quality high.

In addition, shielding effectiveness above 120 dB, minimal intermodulation, and high power handling make these cables a dependable choice for demanding RF feeder applications. They also operate from -55°C to +85°C and withstand harsh outdoor weather, so they deliver long service life wherever reliable RF transmission matters most.

Why Choose Our Corrugated Coaxial Cables

Flexible without Giving Up Shielding

The corrugated copper outer conductor bends easily around obstacles and tight corners. As a result, it resists kinking and helps preserve shield integrity, something solid-wall coax struggles to do.

Built for High Power

These cables handle heavy power loads while keeping intermodulation to a minimum. That means the signal stays clean even under sustained load.

Rated for the Outdoors

Harsh weather, temperature swings, and years of continuous outdoor exposure do not compromise performance. Therefore, these cables suit demanding outdoor installations.

Engineered to Last

High tensile strength and strong crush resistance combine to deliver a long service life. This makes the cable a reliable choice for challenging installation conditions.

Applications of Corrugated Coaxial Cables

Base stations and wireless communication

Corrugated coaxial cable serves as the feeder line connecting antennas to base station equipment. In this way, it carries RF power efficiently across cellular, PCS, and wireless networks.

Broadcast and terrestrial microwave

Broadcast towers and terrestrial microwave links rely on low-loss, high-power feeder cable. This allows the signal to move from the equipment room to the antenna with minimal degradation.

In-building and DAS systems

Distributed antenna systems and repeater installations need cable that bends around building structures while still handling meaningful power. Corrugated construction meets that need well.

Customization

Every installation has its own run length, bend requirements, and power demands. Therefore, corrugated coaxial cable assemblies can be tailored to fit your project, including cable diameter, length, connector interface, and jacket type.

Send us your frequency, power level, run length, and environmental conditions, and we will help you configure the right cable for your project.

FAQ

1. What makes corrugated coaxial cable different from standard coax?

The outer conductor uses a corrugated copper tube instead of a smooth solid wall. Because of this design, the cable can bend and flex without cracking or losing shielding effectiveness, unlike solid-wall coax that needs a much larger bend radius.

2. Why does intermodulation (PIM) matter?

Intermodulation distortion creates unwanted signals inside the cable itself. As a result, it can degrade network performance, especially in multi-carrier systems. Low-PIM construction helps keep the transmitted signal clean.

3. What temperature range can this cable handle?

Our corrugated coaxial cables operate from -55°C to +85°C, so they cover both cold climates and the heat buildup common on towers and rooftops.

4. Is corrugated coaxial cable suitable for high-power applications?

Yes. The construction supports high power handling with low loss, which is why it is widely used as feeder cable for base stations and broadcast antennas.

5. Can these cables be customized for my project?

Yes. We can adjust the diameter, length, connector type, and jacket material to match your frequency, power level, and installation environment. Share your requirements, and we will recommend the right configuration.
