What is RG214 Coax Cable?

The RG214 coax cable is a favored type of coax cable used for high-frequency signal transmissions. It is constructed with a stranded, silver-plated inner conductor, polyethylene dielectric, two silver-plated copper outer conductors, and a PVC jacket. The jacket allows for resistance against several environmental factors including abrasion and moisture. Additionally, the cable’s shielding prevents electrical interference giving the cable an excellent and consistent current. RG214 coax cable's Mil-Spec equivalent is M17/75-RG214. This coax cable is used in telecommunications, data transmission, radio frequency communication, broadcast, and computer applications. It is used to connect wireless and data communication systems that require high signal sequences and low attenuation, as well as in test leads and quality installations requiring low PIM and cross talk. The RG214 coax cable is also popular with radio frequency and microwave transmission in LAN networks and instrumentation or control applications.

Applications of RG214 Coax Cable

RG214 Coax Cable is widely used in various high-frequency applications, including telecommunications, data transmission, radio frequency communication, broadcasting, and computer networks. It is ideal for connecting wireless and data communication systems that require high signal integrity and low attenuation. Additionally, RG214 is often used in test leads, quality installations needing low PIM and crosstalk, and in LAN networks and instrumentation or control applications where reliable signal transmission is critical.

Are there Alternatives to RG214 Coax Cable?

While RG214 Coax Cable is an excellent choice for many applications, there are alternatives available for specific needs. For instance, RG213 Coax Cable offers similar performance but with a single braided shield, making it slightly less expensive. For applications requiring higher flexibility, LMR-400 cable is a suitable option due to its flexible construction and similar electrical properties. Each alternative provides unique benefits, allowing you to select the most appropriate cable for your specific requirements.
