RG196 Coaxial Cable M17/93 50 Ohm PFA Jacketed Miniature Coax for High Temp Applications

RG196 M17/93-00001 is a MIL-DTL-17 compliant 50 Ohm miniature coaxial cable engineered for high-temperature applications where space is at a premium. This precision transmission line features a 7/0.10mm silver-plated copper-covered steel (SCCS) stranded conductor and PTFE dielectric, delivering stable electrical performance through 3 GHz. The PFA jacket provides superior thermal resistance up to 230°C while maintaining excellent flexibility, and the single silver-plated copper braid offers effective EMI shielding. With an ultra-compact 1.8mm outer diameter and 10mm minimum bend radius, RG196 is the preferred choice for aerospace avionics, defense  electronics, and industrial high-heat environments where standard cables cannot survive.
