S65161-A is a 50 ohm coaxial cable designed for aerospace and defense applications, featuring a silver-plated copper conductor, PTFE dielectric, and extruded ETFE jacket with dual silver-plated shields: a spiral braid inner and braided outer shield. It has an outer diameter of 0.195 inches (4.95 mm), a weight of 3.5 lbs per 100 ft (5.2 kg per 100 m), and operates from -65°C to +150°C. The cable meets RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC, is Skydrol resistant per SAE AS4373E Method 601, and complies with FAR Part 25.869(a) App. F for flame and smoke. Electrical properties include 83% velocity of propagation, 26 pF/ft capacitance, 1.23 ns/ft time delay, and shielding effectiveness of at least -110 dB. Attenuation follows K1=0.251 and K2=0.0003.
S65161-A is a 50 Ohm coaxial cable and the industry’s workhorse, with decades of proven performance in the aerospace and defense markets. The S65161-A features a 100% shielded construction, incorporating both silver-plated copper spiral (inner) and braided (outer) shields. The electrical characteristics of S65161-A are comparable to standard RG393 coax cable, yet S65161-A weighs less than 25% of RG393 cable.
