Stainless Steel Preformed Coaxial Cable SMA-M Connector 202544-001 ~5.5"

Stainless Steel Preformed Coaxial Cable SMA-M Connector 202544-001 ~5.5"

This is a preformed stainless steel coaxial cable assembly with an SMA-M (SMA male) connector, part number 202544-001. The cable is approximately 5.5 inches in overall length and has been formed into a fixed curved/loop shape, allowing it to be routed precisely within an instrument or equipment chassis without flexing or shifting. The opposite end terminates in a small formed tip. This type of rigid preformed coax is commonly used inside RF and microwave test instruments to make low-loss, mechanically stable internal interconnections between modules or ports.

Applications

Preformed semi-rigid coaxial cables like this one are standard internal interconnects in RF and microwave test equipment — spectrum analyzers, signal generators, network analyzers, and similar instruments. Because they are formed to a fixed shape and use a rigid stainless outer conductor, they provide excellent RF shielding and extremely stable electrical characteristics compared to flexible coax. They are commonly found inside equipment from manufacturers such as HP/Agilent/Keysight, Anritsu, Rohde & Schwarz, and others, used to route signals between internal subassemblies at microwave frequencies. This part is particularly useful as a service replacement for an instrument that requires an internal coaxial interconnect of the same preformed geometry, or for prototype and lab bench RF builds requiring a fixed-form low-loss coaxial run.
