Specs Summary
About This Assembly
LMR200 Times Cable
LMR-200 is a Times Microwave 50-ohm flexible coaxial cable with a 0.200" diameter, positioned between LMR-195 and LMR-240 for applications requiring a compromise between flexibility and low loss. It supports frequencies up to 3 GHz and is frequently deployed for WLAN access point drops, panel antenna leads, and base station jumpers up to 50 feet.
UHF Connector
The UHF connector (also known as PL-259 male / SO-239 female) is a large, low-cost RF connector designed in the 1930s for HF and VHF frequencies. Despite its name, its practical usable range is below 300 MHz due to its non-constant impedance design. It remains extremely popular in amateur radio (HF through VHF), CB radio, and marine radio applications.
RP-SMA Connector
RP-SMA (Reverse Polarity SMA) uses the SMA threaded coupling mechanism but with the male/female pin convention reversed — the jack has a pin and the plug has a socket. Originally standardized to prevent connection of uncertified antennas to consumer WiFi equipment, RP-SMA is now the dominant connector on commercial WiFi routers, access points, and 2.4/5 GHz antennas.
Common Applications
This RP-SMA and UHF cable assembly is well suited for WLAN access point drops, panel antenna leads, and medium-length indoor runs. The combination of reliable RP-SMA and UHF connectors and custom-cut cable length makes it a practical choice for both field installations and bench setups. Every assembly is hand-terminated, continuity tested, and ships free within the USA.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is LMR200 Times coaxial cable used for?
LMR-200 is a Times Microwave 50-ohm flexible coaxial cable with a 0.200" diameter, positioned between LMR-195 and LMR-240 for applications requiring a compromise between flexibility and low loss. It supports frequencies up to 3 GHz and is frequently deployed for WLAN access point drops, panel antenna leads, and base station jumpers up to 50 feet.
What is the signal loss of LMR200 Times?
At 1800 MHz, LMR200 Times has approximately 13.9 dB of loss per 100 ft (0.139 dB/ft).
What frequency range does this assembly support?
This assembly is rated DC – 300 MHz, limited by the lowest-rated component across the cable and connectors.
What is a UHF connector?
The UHF connector (also known as PL-259 male / SO-239 female) is a large, low-cost RF connector designed in the 1930s for HF and VHF frequencies. Despite its name, its practical usable range is below 300 MHz due to its non-constant impedance design.
