About This Assembly

RG142 Cable

RG-142 is a double-shielded 50-ohm PTFE coaxial cable rated for operation from cryogenic temperatures up to +200°C with a 0.195" outer diameter. Its dual-shield construction provides excellent EMI rejection while the PTFE dielectric ensures stable electrical performance across a wide frequency range. The preferred choice for military, aerospace, and high-power RF applications.

F Connector

The F connector is a low-cost threaded coaxial connector used almost exclusively in cable TV, satellite, and over-the-air broadcast applications. It uses the center conductor of RG-6 or RG-59 cable as the pin, which simplifies termination and reduces cost. F connectors are found on cable modems, satellite receivers, TV tuners, and distribution amplifiers.

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.

Common Applications

This F and N cable assembly is well suited for high-temperature and high-power military or aerospace RF assemblies. The combination of reliable F and N 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.
