Cable + Connectors

RF (Radio Frequency) cables are used to transmit signals between radio devices, antennas, repeaters, and other RF equipment. They ensure minimal signal loss and interference over distance.

• RG58 is lightweight and flexible, suitable for short runs or portable gear.

• RG213 is thicker with lower signal loss, ideal for medium-length runs.

• LMR-400 offers excellent shielding and minimal loss over longer distances—perfect for professional radio or network installations.

Common connector types include PL259 (UHF), N-Type, BNC, and SMA. Check your device’s specifications, or contact us for help identifying the right match.

Yes! We offer custom-built RF cables to suit your exact length and connector requirements. Just get in touch with your specifications.

Signal loss (attenuation) occurs as RF signals travel through the cable. To minimise it, use high-quality low-loss cable (like LMR-400), shorter cable runs, and proper connectors.

For outdoor installations, absolutely. We recommend using self-amalgamating tape or weatherproof boots to prevent water ingress and corrosion.

RF adapters allow you to connect mismatched connector types (e.g., SMA to BNC) without replacing the entire cable. They're a simple, cost-effective solution.

Yes—all our RF cables are tested to support VHF and UHF frequency bands, making them ideal for two-way radios, base stations, and repeaters.

Signs of a bad cable include weak signal, intermittent audio, or no transmission. You can test with a continuity meter or swap out the cable to isolate the issue.

If you’re comfortable with basic radio equipment, yes. For more complex setups—like repeater systems or long-run cabling—we recommend professional installation to ensure performance and safety.
