What is an RF cable on a TV?
Television sets need various connections for them to work and transmit audio and signals correctly. Older TV models also needed signals to broadcast programs. There were two ways old TV sets could receive these audio and video signals. One was [...]
What are SMA Connectors?
SMA connector and RP–SMA connector, also known as coaxial connectors, are the standard for antenna connections. They form the minimum interfaces to coaxial cables by using a screwable coupling mechanism. Both are used in many devices and applications operating in [...]
Difference between the RG58 and RG174 coaxial cables
Coaxial cables were first invented 142 years ago and have been employed to transmit high-frequency electrical signals over long distances at low signal loss. These cables have many purposes, including telephone trunk lines, cable TV signals, and cell phone [...]
How to differentiate the types of network cables?
There are three primary types of network cables that are used in modern communication systems: fiber optic coaxial, and twisted pair. Each of them can be used for different purposes and is therefore unique. However, they have something in common, [...]
How Do I Choose SMA Connectors?
When choosing an RF connector, consumers must consider its electronic performance and its economic impact. Performance must meet the system wiring requirements, and the economy conform requirement for value engineering. The rapid growth in "wireless" technology has also led to [...]
Learn everything about RG-58/U coaxial cables
RG-58/U coaxial cable is a common type used for low-power signal and RF connections. The cable's characteristic impedance is either 50 O or 52 O. The original unit indicator for bulk RF cables in the U.S military's Joint Electronics [...]
