S86208 is a 50 ohm coaxial cable designed for aerospace and defense applications, featuring a silver-plated copper center conductor, PTFE dielectric, and extruded FEP jacket. It has an outer diameter of 0.13 inch (3.3 mm), weighs 1.95 lbs per 100 ft (2.9 kg per 100 m), and operates from -55 to +200°C. The cable offers 80% velocity of propagation, 25 pF/ft capacitance, and shielding effectiveness of at least -80 dB. It meets RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC, SAE AS4373E Skydrol resistance, and FAR Part 25.869 flame/smoke standards. Attenuation ranges from 8.9 dB/100 ft at 0.4 GHz to 35.2 dB/100 ft at 5.0 GHz. The minimum bend radius is 0.65 inch (16.51 mm).
S86208 is a 50 Ohm coaxial cable and the industry’s workhorse, with decades of proven performance in the aerospace and defense markets. The S86208 features a low-loss PTFE expanded tape dielectric between the center conductor and shield, which improves shielding and strength compared to conventional wire braids. S86208 is a lightweight and more compact replacement for standard M17/128-RG400 coax cable. When compared to RG400, the S86208 coax cable is two-thirds the diameter and less than half the weight — 20 lbs vs 43 lbs per 1,000 ft.
