Description
The CFT500A76 armored phase-stable precision test coaxial cable extends the CFT500 electrical platform with an added armor structure for improved abrasion resistance and handling durability in demanding test environments. Rated to 26.5 GHz with a controlled 50 Ω impedance, the armored construction supports stable RF performance during frequent motion and routing changes. Fully REACH and RoHS compliant, the CFT500A76 is suited for laboratories and production lines needing added mechanical protection. Explore the complete CFT Series – Low-Loss & Phase-Stable Precision Test Cables for frequency and jacket options.
The CFT500A76 precision coaxial cable specifies phase stability ≤ ±5° @ 26.5 GHz and amplitude stability ≤ ±0.05 dB @ 26.5 GHz, supporting repeatable high-frequency measurements. The construction maintains 82% velocity of propagation, 2000 VDC withstand voltage, and >90 dB shielding effectiveness. Attenuation is specified at 0.271 dB/m @ 1 GHz and 1.588 dB/m @ 26.5 GHz. For a non-armored alternative with similar attenuation, see CFT500.
The CFT500A76 uses a 5.05 mm PFA jacket plus armor layers (7.00 mm) and an outer armor jacket (7.55 mm) with bicolor PTFE weaving for enhanced mechanical protection. The cable is designed for long bending life with an 80 mm single-bend radius and a wide operating temperature range from –55 °C to +165 °C. For additional phase-stable variants used in precision testing, browse the Precision Test Coaxial Cable Series.
The CFT500A76 armored phase-stable coaxial cable fits applications such as VNA test systems, calibration fixtures, production ATE, and RF module verification up to 26.5 GHz where cables are repeatedly repositioned. The armored structure helps protect performance-critical assemblies in environments where abrasion and handling are common. For compatible terminations, review the RF connector portfolio designed for precision impedance matching.
Manufactured by Mechanc Shanghai Information Technology Co., Ltd., the CFT500A76 armored precision test coaxial cable combines low loss, phase stability, and reinforced durability with verified REACH and RoHS compliance for professional RF and microwave measurement workflows.
