18 GHz Semi-Rigid Cryogenic RF Coaxial Cable – CRT086

Low-Temperature 18 GHz Semi-Rigid Cable for Cryostat RF Connections

Bandwidth, cable form and installation discipline converge in CRT086, a 18 GHz cryogenic semi-rigid RF coaxial cable for superconducting experiments. In the CRT086 implementation at 2.15 mm, the crt conductor system is specified down to -268 °c for signal routing into cryogenic stages where ordinary cable materials are unsuitable. Its individual values distinguish the CRT086 coaxial cable within the Cryogenic Semi-Rigid Coaxial Cables range.

RF Feedthrough Paths Inside Cryostats — CRT086

This specification mix is relevant to cryostats as well as quantum research platforms, where cable space and RF margin must be assessed together. Broader geometry and performance choices are listed under Semi-Rigid Coaxial Cables when comparing alternatives to CRT086.

RF Performance for Cryostat Interconnects — CRT086

The upper-frequency data pair 4.960 dB/m of loss with 0.024 kW of power handling at 18 GHz. The CRT086 core uses a 0.56 mm silver plated copper-nickel alloy inner conductor works with a 77% velocity of propagation. Delay modelling for CRT086 can start from its documented 77% velocity-of-propagation figure.

Cryostat Routing with a Defined Cable Envelope — CRT086

A 2.15 mm cable body must be planned around a 4.30 mm static bend limit, within the documented -268 to +150 °C range. For CRT086, routing decisions should remain within the documented bend geometry rather than relying on a generic family assumption. The compact 2.15 mm format makes the CRT086 RF cable suitable where available routing volume is sharply constrained.

The individual data behind CRT086 lets designers evaluate this Mechanc cable on its own electrical and mechanical merits. The Mechanc Shanghai Information Technology Co., Ltd. portfolio provides the wider context for CRT086 and its intended RF role.
