The CFR160 RF coaxial cable provides a characterized 67 GHz cable platform for laboratory interconnects and related microwave interconnects. Within the CFR160 raw coaxial cable configuration, the CFR concept targets economical broadband integration, giving production engineers a defined performance baseline for volume RF hardware. Quantitative comparison of the CFR160 coaxial cable with other Cost-Efficient Flexible Coaxial Cables models should be based on the endpoint loss, power, conductor, and mechanical data below.
This parameter set makes the CFR160 coaxial cable suitable for engineering evaluation in production test fixtures and general microwave routing, subject to assembly length, connector interface, and system-level derating. For the CFR160 coaxial cable, this documented specification set enables disciplined comparison against alternative cable diameters and performance classes. When alternatives to the CFR160 raw coaxial cable are required, additional construction and performance options are available in the Flexible Coaxial Cables portfolio.
At the rated upper frequency of 67 GHz, specified attenuation is 12.223 dB/m and power handling is 0.003 kW. A 0.29 mm silver plated copper inner conductor establishes the conductive path, with a documented propagation velocity of 70%. For the CFR160 RF cable, the 70% propagation value provides the basis for estimating electrical delay and timing skew over the required assembly length. Together, these values support link-loss, electrical-delay, and power-margin calculations for the CFR160 RF coaxial cable at the intended operating frequency.
Mechanical integration is governed by a 1.45 mm cable diameter, a 10.00 mm minimum static bend radius and 15.00 mm minimum dynamic bend radius, and a temperature range of -55 to +165 °C. For the CFR160 raw coaxial cable, the FEP jacket must be considered in environmental, material-compatibility, and installation assessments. The compact 1.45 mm profile of the CFR160 RF cable facilitates constrained routing without relaxing the specified bend limits. Compliance with these constraints helps protect impedance continuity and repeatability at the cable-to-connector transition associated with the CFR160 RF coaxial cable.
Mechanc Shanghai Information Technology Co., Ltd. documents the CFR160 RF coaxial cable with product-specific parameters so that RF engineers can evaluate the interconnect against system bandwidth, loss budget, power, thermal, and packaging requirements. Within the product portfolio, this configuration is designated as the CFR160 raw coax.
