Components
Construction details
Barrier tape
A .001 inch thick polyester tape faced with a .002 inch thick layer of aluminum. The tape will be
applied with a 50% lap, minimum. Aluminum face toward the outer conductor. Diameter: .350
inch, maximum.
Jacket
Cross-linked polyolefin. Diameter: .405 inch ± .010.
REQUIREMENTS:
Continuous working voltage: 1,000 V rms, maximum.
Operating frequency: 1 GHz, maximum.
Velocity of propagation: 88 percent, nominal.
Power ratings: See figure 2.
Operating temperature range: -40°C to +80°C.
Inner conductor properties:
DC resistance (maximum at +20°C): 54.4 ohms per 100 feet, maximum.
Elongation: 2 percent, minimum.
Tensile strength: 110 klbf/inch/inch, minimum.
Engineering notes: This cable is useful in low capacitance, medium low temperature applications.
(See connector series "N", "C", and "SC" per MIL-C-39012). Use this cable in new designs in lieu-of MIL-C-
17/47 cables.
The US Government preferred system of measurement is the metric SI system. However, since this item was
originally designed using inch-pound units of measurement, in the event of conflict between the metric and inch-
pound, the inch-pound units shall take predecence.
Dimensions, configuration, and descriptions: See figure 1 and table I.
