What To Know Prior To Buying Coax For WIFI Use

Spending a little more on coaxial cable will make a huge difference wireless tra
nsmission over distance. Major brands who source offshore maintain their own qua
lity engineers to test and monitor cable produced for them. Guess where the cabl
e that fails their inspections goes? There are other companies still making qual
ity cable in the US other than Times Microwave, but LMR-400 sets the standard. B
ut by all means, do your Homework!
Major brands who source offshore maintain their own quality engineers to test an
d monitor cable produced for them. Guess where the cable that fails their inspec
tions goes? We sell other quality cables made in the US but Times Microwave LMR2
40 and LMR400 continues to be the best seller. But by all means, do your Homewor
k!
A good cable assembly takes into consideration Ham, CB or WiFi system requiremen
ts and is selected to meet specific transmission requirements. The finest cables
in the world are made here in the US by Times Microwave and there is a huge dif
ference between them and the cheap stuff! Mass market antennas and cable where t
he same cheap components are used regardless of frequency or use are common in e
very big box store. By considering the specific application you will use your LM
R cable assembly and antennas for you can assemble a transmission system that is
far superior to any you can buy for twice the price.
When compared with old style RG type braided cables, LMR-240 or LMR-400 coaxial
cables offer far lower loss and better RF shielding than RG8/U, RG8x and RG-58 5
0 Ohm Cables. Times LMR-400 and LMR-240 low loss coax cables have RF performance
comparable to traditional hard corrugated copper cables, but also offer flexibi
lity, non-kinking and easy, fast connector installation that hard line cable canâ t m
atch. Times Microwave, the maker of LMR cables, is a technology leader in coaxia
l cable design and development and itâ s LMR-400 and 240 cables set the standard for
quality.
Coaxial cable for microwave (802.11 2.4 GHz WiFi) has to maintain the signal fro
m your transmitter to your antenna without loss. Common Chinese made RG-58 from
Radio Shack or other outlets is NOT the best you can do for coaxial cable and wi
ll lower your effective signal out! Used only for VERY short runs since it loses
almost a DB per foot at microwave frequencies and is still very loss prone at C
B freqs. Since thin cable has more loss for higher frequencies it is best to use
only short lengths of LMR-240 LMR400 From Times Micro remains the best overall
choice for best transmission line.
For most Ham and WiFi transmission, using Chinese RG-58 or other tiny small coax
ial cables a bad idea and will reduce your transmitted signal. Used only for VER
Y short runs since it loses almost a DB per foot at microwave frequencies and is
still very loss prone at CB freqs. Since thin cable has more loss for higher fr
equencies it is best to use only short lengths of LMR-240 Overall LMR400 is the
best coaxial cable for Ham and WiFi use.
