About This Assembly
Specs Summary
RG174 Cable
RG-174 is an ultra-thin, highly flexible 50-ohm coaxial cable with a 0.100" outer diameter — one of the smallest coax types available. Its stranded center conductor and single-braid shield make it ideal for tight internal wiring where space is at a premium. Typical uses include GPS antenna pigtails, WiFi module connections, and short adapter leads inside enclosures.
SMC Connector
SMC (SubMiniature version C) is a threaded RF connector similar in size to SMB but with a screw coupling for a more secure connection, rated to 10 GHz. It is used in telecommunications infrastructure, GPS, and precision instrumentation where the vibration resistance of a threaded connector is needed in a compact form factor.
Misc Connector
This connector type includes specialized or application-specific RF connectors designed for particular equipment or industries. These may include 2.4mm, 2.92mm (K), 1.85mm (V), SMP, SSMP, or proprietary interface types used in precision microwave measurement, defense electronics, and specialized RF subsystems.
Common Applications
This Misc and SMC cable assembly is well suited for GPS and WiFi module pigtails, short flexible adapter leads, and internal device wiring. The combination of reliable Misc and SMC 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 RG174 coaxial cable used for?
RG-174 is an ultra-thin, highly flexible 50-ohm coaxial cable with a 0.100" outer diameter — one of the smallest coax types available. Its stranded center conductor and single-braid shield make it ideal for tight internal wiring where space is at a premium. Typical uses include GPS antenna pigtails, WiFi module connections, and short adapter leads inside enclosures.
What is the signal loss of RG174?
At 1800 MHz, RG174 has approximately 32 dB of loss per 100 ft (0.32 dB/ft).
What frequency range does this assembly support?
This assembly is rated DC – 3 GHz, limited by the lowest-rated component across the cable and connectors.
What is a SMC connector?
SMC (SubMiniature version C) is a threaded RF connector similar in size to SMB but with a screw coupling for a more secure connection, rated to 10 GHz. It is used in telecommunications infrastructure, GPS, and precision instrumentation where the vibration resistance of a threaded connector is needed in a compact form factor.
