Physical Characteristics
- Nominal OD (Outer Diameter): 2.40 mm (0.094 inches)
- Bending Radius: 25 mm (1 inch) static; 50 mm (2 inches) dynamic.
- Flexibility: High Flexibility. The stranded conductor allows it to bend and flex repeatedly without the "memory" or breakage issues common in solid-core cables (like RG174).
Common Connector Types
- SMA (SubMiniature version A): The standard connector for RF modules, antennas, and test equipment.
- SSMA: A microminiature version of SMA for very dense packaging.
- BNC: Common for instrumentation and lab use (requires a specific crimp barrel for RG316).
- TNC: Threaded version of BNC, often used in GPS and outdoor antennas.
Key Features
- Superior Flexibility: The stranded copper center conductor allows the cable to withstand constant movement and vibration, making it ideal for robotics, test probes, and portable devices.
- High-Temperature FEP Jacket: Rated for continuous use up to 200°C, making it suitable for engine compartments and industrial ovens where PVC cables would melt.
- Chemical & UV Resistance: FEP is inert to most chemicals and resists UV degradation, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor use without cracking.
- PTFE Dielectric: Ensures stable electrical performance across a wide temperature range and up to microwave frequencies (typically 18 GHz).
Applications
- Test & Measurement: Used as test leads and probes where technicians move the cable frequently.
- Aerospace & Defense: Utilized in avionics, radar systems, and military radios due to its ruggedness and wide temperature tolerance.
- Antenna Jumpers: Used in tight spaces inside routers, modems, and communication equipment where the cable must be bent at sharp angles.
- Medical Equipment: Used in patient monitors and diagnostic equipment where reliability and flexibility are critical.
Important Note: RG316 vs. RG174
- RG174: Has a solid center conductor and usually a PVC jacket. It is cheaper and less flexible.
- RG316: Has a stranded center conductor and a FEP jacket. It is more expensive but far more durable, flexible, and heat-resistant.
- Recommendation: If your application involves moving the cable or is in a hot environment, choose RG316. If it is a fixed installation in a normal office/temp environment, RG174 may suffice.
