BWL400 low loss 50 Ohm coaxial cable specification overview

For longer low loss antenna cable runs, EAD/Specialist Antennas often turns to BWL400 cable manufactured by Italian cable specialist Beta Cavi. With a choice of connectors, BWL400 has excellent RF properties characterised by low loss per metre properties, is an interesting choice for applications up to 3 GHz and an excellent alternative to LMR400.

We can custom build BWL400 cables to length with N-Male, N-Female, TNC-Male, TNC-Female, SMA-Male, SMA-Female, BNC-Male, BNC-Female, RP-TNC and RP-SMA connectors. For more information, please contact us. We also offer N-Male compression connectors for applications requiring high pull strength and robust N-Male plug terminations.

Popular LTE-HIGAIN antenna now offered with integrated mounting stud.

A new low profile, permanent mount LTE/4G Multiband antenna is now in stock. The LTE-HIGAIN-STUD antenna is rugged and robust through-hole mount omni antenna that is mounted via a N-Female connector. Similar to the market-leading LTE-HIGAIN-MAG antennas, this antenna is based on the same radiating technology, but an integrated stud is an alternative to a magnetic mount.

This antenna should be mounted on a metal surface such as a vehicle or narrowboat roof and does require a jumper cable terminated in N-Male to mate with the antenna.
