The right cable for every install
Feeder loss directly reduces radio range: every 3 dB lost in the cable halves the power reaching the aerial and weakens received signals. Thin cables like RG58 are ideal for short vehicle runs. For base stations, repeaters and longer runs, step up to RG213, double-shielded RG214 or low-loss LMR400.
How to order
Select the cable type, then enter the length in metres as the quantity. Need a full roll, heliax, or a finished lead with connectors fitted? See our pre-made cable leads and connectors, or contact us for roll pricing and custom leads made to length.
Times Microwave LMR cable
LMR cables from Times Microwave Systems offer much lower loss than RG types of the same size. Ultra Flex versions are easier to route through vehicles and cabinets. Our sister company Hi-Tec Aerials is a registered New Zealand distributor of Times Microwave Systems products.
