StabilityPlus™ SP-SMA cable assemblies are phase-stable and amplitude-stable microwave/RF cable assemblies designed for repeatable measurements in vector network analyzers, bench-top testing, and ATE systems. They feature a brown color-coded connector for compatibility identification, operate up to 26.5 GHz, and maintain typical phase stability of ±2° and amplitude stability of ±0.02 dB after flexure. The cable has a 50 ohm nominal impedance, typical insertion loss of 0.55 dB/ft, and a velocity of propagation of 76%. The center conductor is silver-plated copper, with a maximum outer cable diameter of 0.16 in (4 mm) and a minimum static bend radius of 0.8 in (20 mm). Flex life exceeds 10,000 cycles, connector mating cycles exceed 5,000, and operating temperature ranges from -67°F to 221°F (-55°C to 105°C). The assembly is RoHS/REACH compliant.
StabilityPlus™ phase-stable cable assemblies (SP-series) set the standard for high-performance ruggedized microwave/RF cable assemblies. Designed specifically for phase-stable and amplitude-stable applications, StabilityPlus™ offers excellent measurement repeatability even after cable flexure. With a ruggedized, durable construction, StabilityPlus™ will outlast and outperform other assemblies resulting in a reduced total cost-of-test. Stability Plus’™ is equally suited for for daily use with VNA’s as well as high-end test instrumentation. StabilityPlus™ employs color-coded connectors to reduce potential for connection mistakes and is available with TNCA, SMA, Type N, 7mm, 3.5mm, 2.92mm, 2.4mm, 1.85mm, and 1mm connectors up to 110 GHz.
