RG-400 Coax Jumper Cable with PL-259's on each end - 3 feet, Double Shield, High Power
Product Details

This cable is 50 ohm and 3 feet long double shielded with foil and braid and PL-259 connectors on each end. All the connections inside are soldered and the cable is made of copper conductors with coax having PVC jacket. RG400 is generally useful up to 5000 watts PEP at HF frequencies below 30 MHz. Greater power capability and frequency range than RG-8X, yet similar physical size.

Use for short jumper for Palomar Engineers Noise Filters like CMNF-500-50 or use with Simple Dipole Feed line Choke (SDFLC) to make a 10 turn high wattage feed line choke. Also useful between radio devices such as transceiver and amplifier, antenna tuner, SWR meter, etc.


** Our Customers also used this RG400 Coax to make ham radio common mode chokes up to 5KW PEP

The high power ferrite impedance transformer series (> 1:1), configured with outputs to act as a baluns (unbalanced coax in to balanced load output) or as ununs (unbalanced coax input to unbalanced load output) are designed for demanding radio transmitter stations that run over 1,000 watts PEP or run continuous modes like AM, digital, RTTY, FM, etc. at high power levels. Radio contest operators, commercial shortwave broadcast, and industrial and commercial stations use these transformers for for a variety of balanced and unbalanced antenna loads.  Baluns are typically used for balanced loads and antennas like dipoles, loops, log periodics, and direct feed yagi/beams.  Ununs are used  with verticals, end fed wires, horizontal dipoles, G5RV/ZS6BKW, Zepps, vertical wire beams, etc).  All products are in an enclosed NEMA water resistant box with SO-239 input connector and stainless steel side/top studs with wing nuts or side and top eyebolts.  The enclosure box has mounting “side feet” for attachment to a post or antenna boom using nylon ties.
