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

Palomar Engineers offers a variety of impedance transformers configured as Baluns (balanced coax to unbalanced load) or Ununs (unbalanced coax to unbalanced load) for  matching typical 50 ohm feed line impedances to antenna or other load impedances.

We specify impedance ratios as an output to input ratio where the output (or load) is given first and the input is given second (e.g. 100:50 (2:1) would mean a 100 ohm output and a 50 ohm input; a 25:50 (1:2) would mean a 25 ohm load and a 50 ohm input).  Most all products use a 50 ohm input unless otherwise specified.

We have products that are available as kits for the do-it-yourself (DIY) person or fully assembled and tested units for the “Plug & Play” crowd.

Our impedance transformers are available using two different topologies: Binocular cores or  toroid cores with multiple turns for increased effectiveness and wide band frequency transformations.  We utilize single and multiple core transformers using high order windings when needed to extend product performance.

We rate the power ratings as watts PEP (Peak Envelop Power) with standard duty cycles for various modes. To determine the PEP rating required for your needs, see: Choke & Transformer Power Ratings
