RG195A/U 95 Ohm High Voltage RF Cable MIL-DTL-17 Coaxial Cable for Satellite and Radar

RG195A/U M17/137-00001 is a MIL-DTL-17 compliant 95 Ohm coaxial cable engineered for applications requiring high voltage resistance and precise impedance matching. This RF cable features a white taped PTFE jacket that enables continuous operation from -55°C to +250°C while maintaining flexibility for routing in confined spaces. The 0.30mm silver-plated copper-clad soft steel (SCCS) inner conductor provides reliable signal transmission with the mechanical strength needed for fixed installations. The extruded PTFE dielectric at 2.60mm ensures consistent 95 Ohm impedance with 51 pF/m capacitance and 69.5% velocity of propagation. The silver-plated copper wire braid at 2.97mm delivers effective EMI shielding with excellent conductivity. With 1500V RMS maximum operating voltage and 400 MHz rated frequency, RG195A/U is suited for aerospace avionics, defense systems, and high-voltage industrial applications requiring 95 Ohm characteristic impedance.
