About This Assembly

RFC240 Cable

RFC-240 is a 0.240" 50-ohm low-loss coaxial cable delivering performance comparable to LMR-240 at a more accessible price, making it popular for installers who need reliable medium-distance cable runs. Well suited for cellular repeater installations, point-to-point wireless links, and access point feedlines up to 75 feet.

N Connector

Type N is a threaded RF connector rated from DC to 18 GHz with a durable weatherproof design, making it the preferred interface for outdoor antenna installations, cellular base stations, and commercial wireless infrastructure. Its larger size compared to SMA allows higher power handling and the threaded coupling resists vibration, making it suitable for mobile and fixed outdoor applications.

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.

Common Applications

This N and UHF cable assembly is well suited for medium-length cellular and WiFi antenna runs at a value price point. The combination of reliable N 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

Is this cable hand-assembled in the USA?

Yes. Every CoaxRF cable assembly is hand-terminated and continuity tested at our US facility before shipping. We do not drop-ship pre-made cables from overseas — each cable is built to order.

Can I order a different length than 100 ft?

Yes. This page is for the 100 ft assembly. Use the length buttons above to select a different standard length, or use the Cable Builder for any custom length.

How much signal loss will I see with this 100 ft cable?

At 1800 MHz, RFC240 loses approximately 11.3 dB per 100 ft. This 100 ft assembly will have roughly 11.3 dB of insertion loss at that frequency. See the signal loss table for all frequency points.

What is the maximum frequency for this assembly?

This assembly is rated DC – 300 MHz. The effective frequency limit is set by the lowest-rated component — either the cable or one of the connectors. Both N FEMALE and SO239 UHF Female connectors must be within spec at your target frequency.

What is your return policy?

We accept returns within 30 days of delivery. Custom-length cables are accepted as long as they are in original condition. Contact us and we will provide a prepaid return label at no charge.
