This 1\u00a0meter assembly is constructed using Mechanc&#8217;s CFT240H18 coaxial cable, a phase-stable enhancement of the <a href=\"\/coaxial-cables\/phase-stable-67ghz-precision-test-coaxial-cable-fep-jacket-cft240\/\">CFT240 Phase-Stable 67\u00a0GHz Precision Test Coaxial Cable with FEP Jacket<\/a>. Both ends are terminated with precision <a href=\"\/rf-connectors\/sma-rf-connectors\/\">SMA male connectors<\/a> (reference SMA-JCFT240H18-1), providing a compact and reliable interconnect for SMA-based RF instruments and fixtures.<\/p>\n<h3>Accurate RF Performance up to 18\u00a0GHz<\/h3>\n<p>Designed as a regular high-quality test cable, the TCDN-SMSM-1M supports a continuous DC\u201318\u00a0GHz operating band, delivering the impedance stability needed for everyday RF and microwave measurements. The assembly offers a 1.15 typical VSWR and a 3.12\u00a0dB typical insertion loss over a 1\u00a0meter length, enabling clean signal paths for VNA sweeps, S-parameter checks, gain and return-loss measurements, and general-purpose bench testing in development or production environments.<\/p>\n<h3>Phase-Stable CFT240H18 Construction for Repeatable Measurements<\/h3>\n<p>The CFT240H18 coaxial cable is engineered to limit electrical drift as the cable is repositioned, bent, or exposed to temperature changes. With \u00b16\u00b0 mechanical phase stability and \u00b10.06\u00a0dB amplitude stability, it supports repeatable results over many measurement cycles. Its slim 2.4\u00a0mm outer diameter and 24\u00a0mm minimum bend radius make it easy to route in dense setups, while a typical 2,000-cycle bend life and an 81% velocity of propagation help maintain long-term reliability and accurate time-domain behavior across a wide \u201355\u00a0\u00b0C to +165\u00a0\u00b0C operating range.<\/p>\n<h3>Precision SMA Interfaces for Everyday RF Test Benches<\/h3>\n<p>Each end of the TCDN-SMSM-1M features precision SMA-JCFT240H18-1 male connectors designed for low reflection and consistent mating with common RF test equipment. These SMA interfaces are well-suited for connecting to network analyzers, signal generators, spectrum analyzers, and modular RF platforms where repeatable performance and compact form factor are required.
