RG 59


RG 59 / 75Ω – Coaxial cable/coaxial line

The RG59 B/U is a flexible and inexpensive coaxial cable for many applications (50Ω see RG58). This cable complies with the UL standard MIL C 17 and can be used up to voltages of 1.7 kV.

Difference between RG59 B/U and normal cable:
The RG59 B/U is a 6.00 mm thick coaxial high-frequency cable.
Simply shielded and suitable for the vast majority of applications, such as video and IF cables, the conductor is insulated from the shielding by the dielectric and is located in the centre of the cable. The geometry must be adhered to very precisely. If a coaxial cable is bent with a radius smaller than the permissible bending radius, the electrical values are no longer maintained and the cable can no longer be used for certain applications.

The following connectors are recommended:
BNC-HT, SHV and MHV
