Molex , the world's leading provider of complete interconnect products, has introduced microwave cable assemblies that utilize the Temp-Flex TM air-dielectric ultra-low-loss flexible microwave coaxial cable product line. Patented dual monofilament air reinforced design and spiral wound shield. The Temp-Flex coaxial cable achieves 85 to 88% velocity of propagation (VOP), increasing signal speed.

Jeet Sanyal, Temp-Flex Engineering Manager, said: "In high-frequency applications, meeting the demands of powerful signal performance and limited signal loss is an increasing challenge. The industry-leading Temp-Flex microwave coaxial cable provides up to 88 % of VOPs -- beyond the strict military and aerospace specifications, while achieving the best phase stability and bandwidth."

For equipment manufacturers that specify microwave coaxial cables for high-frequency aerospace, defense, and commercial applications, Molex has developed Temp-Flex air dielectric ultra-low loss flexible microwave coaxial cables for applications including radar, military vehicles, satellites, aerospace, Missile, radio frequency (RF) ablation, test and measurement equipment.

In a variety of applications, Temp-Flex coaxial cables offer extremely stable electrical performance with minimal impedance and insertion loss variations. The highly consistent manufacturing process ensures the industry's smallest mechanical tolerances: 0.047", 0.086", 0.141" shielded OD construction. Flexible microwave coaxial cables provide 100 dB or more of shielding effectiveness and protect signals from internal and external interference.

The high-reliability return-loss of the Temp-Flex coaxial cable optimizes the voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) for a complete end-to-end interconnect. Compared to semi-rigid microwave coaxial solutions, spiral-wound flat-wire braided shields provide excellent shielding performance, enhanced bendability and excellent electrical performance.

Temp-Flex air dielectric ultra low loss flexible microwave coaxial cables are now available from Molex components and are available in cable sizes and connector types. With fluoropolymer dielectric insulation to ensure excellent radar, military vehicle, satellite, aerospace, missile, RF ablation and monitoring and control of test and measurement equipment, Temp-Flex cable provides a complete end-to-end solution.

Sanyal added: "For VOP results, small size and electrical control, minimal VSWR and low insertion loss, flexible Temp-Flex microwave coaxial cables exceed market performance standards."
