7/8” FLEX LOW LOSS FEEDER CABLE

Description : The 7/8” flexible low loss cable is manufactured with smooth copper tube as inner conductor and outer
corrugated copper conductor to give a very high degree of flexibility to the cable. The inner conductor is insulated with foam
dielectric having extremely high degree of foaming. The cable has much lower attenuation as compared to standard feeder cable
.The cable is jacketed with Black LDPE jacketing compound to impart protection against UV rays.

Inner Smooth Copper Tube

LDPE + HDPE Foam Insulation
Outer Corrugated copper Conductor
