About This Assembly
Specs Summary
RG316DS Cable
RG-316DS is a double-shielded version of RG-316, featuring two braid layers over the PTFE dielectric for superior EMI isolation. This construction reduces signal leakage and interference pickup, making it essential in sensitive receiver chains, spectrum analyzers, and high-density RF wiring where crosstalk must be minimized.
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 sensitive receiver chains, spectrum analyzer inputs, and high-EMI environments. 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 RG316DS coaxial cable used for?
RG-316DS is a double-shielded version of RG-316, featuring two braid layers over the PTFE dielectric for superior EMI isolation. This construction reduces signal leakage and interference pickup, making it essential in sensitive receiver chains, spectrum analyzers, and high-density RF wiring where crosstalk must be minimized.
What is the signal loss of RG316DS?
At 1800 MHz, RG316DS has approximately 26 dB of loss per 100 ft (0.26 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.
