SMA Male to SMA Male Phase-Stable Precision Test RF Cable Assembly – Built with CFT360P26 Coaxial Cable
The SMA Male to SMA Male Phase-Stable Precision Test RF Cable Assembly — model PCB35-AP-SMSM-1M — is designed for engineers requiring low-loss transmission, exceptional repeatability, and precise phase behavior in broadband test environments. It is manufactured with Mechanc’s CFT360P26 coaxial cable, equipped with dedicated cable armor (reference CFT360P26-ARMOR), a phase-stable variant of the CFT360 phase-stable 50 GHz ruggedized precision test coaxial cable with FEP jacket. The assembly is terminated with two precision SMA male connectors (reference SMA-JCFT360P26-1). Supporting operation up to 26.5 GHz, it offers excellent phase stability, low insertion loss, a maximum VSWR of 1.35, and a compact 3.6 mm outer diameter ideal for dense test and measurement setups.
Consistent Phase Stability and Repeatable Microwave Performance
The PCB35-AP-SMSM-1M is engineered to maintain extremely stable phase and amplitude behavior during repeated bending, movement, and connector engagement. Its precision SMA interfaces ensure low reflection and consistent return-loss performance, making this assembly ideal for VNA calibration workflows, S-parameter verification, RF front-end characterization, and broadband signal integrity analysis.
Low-Loss Ruggedized Coaxial Structure with Integrated Cable Armor
The CFT360P26 coaxial cable combines a low-loss dielectric with a reinforced FEP jacket and phase-stable construction that minimizes phase drift during flexure or temperature variations. Integrated cable armor (CFT360P26-ARMOR) provides mechanical strength and consistent electrical behavior in demanding laboratory environments. Its 3.6 mm outer diameter ensures flexibility and robust handling for high-frequency precision testing.
Reliable Interconnect for High-Accuracy RF and Microwave Systems
As part of Mechanc’s Phase-Stable Precision Test RF Cable Assemblies – PC Series, the PCB35-AP-SMSM-1M undergoes complete testing for insertion loss, VSWR, phase stability, and mechanical reliability. All assemblies are fully REACH and RoHS compliant, ensuring dependable long-term performance for professional RF and microwave measurement applications.
