Cable Construction & Specifications
 

DynaFlex® 200 Series cables offer an optional polyurethane jacket for excellent UV resistance in outdoor installations or for low smoke, halogen free jacket requirements. Solid center conductors contribute to better attenuation performance and are best suited for applications requiring up to 1,000 flexures. It should be noted that DynaFlex® Series DF218 is equivalent to Semflex LA290 or Times Microwave HF-290 cable types and fits all connectors designed for those two products.


 
Power, Attenuation & Phase Characteristics
 

To determine the maximum power rating of a cable assembly at ambient conditions, compare the average power rating of the cable against the connector average power rating (see page 19) and take the lowest value.

Power handling is specified for conditions at sea level and +25 degree C. Use the de-rating chart (shown below) to estimate average or peak power levels at other altitude or temperature conditions.
