Aircom Plus is the new 50 ohm coaxial cable that everyone is talking about. Due to its outstanding electricaland mechanical specifications and its ultra low loss characteristics AIRCOM PLUS is extremely suited for VHF, UHF & SHF applications.
AIRCOM PLUS outperforms any cable in its price class. In fact, AIRCOM PLUS performs very closely at VHF and UHF frequencies to cables costing two to three times more.
Aircom Plus's mechanical construction incorporates a solid flexible copper conductor, unmovable honeycomb expander, a coated solid copper foil surrounded by copper braid for 100% shielding. The cable is then covered with a tough an elastic UV protected PVC exterior jacket. Unlike other cables that change impedance when sharply bent, AIRCOM PLUS's unique honeycomb expander retains the correct impedance.
Aircom Plus's tough honeycomb expander allows no displacement of the center conductor. It can therefore be used in ducting, telescoping, and rotating aerial systems without degrading the signal quality.
The expander also provides a tight seal around the inner conductor, ensuring it is protected against moisture and corrosion.
A high quality N-plug has been developed for AIRCOM PLUS. Its design features: a 3 micron gold plated interior pin, nickel plated exterior, waterproof construction and operation up to 10 GHz.

AIRCELL 7 is a .7mm (.287"OD) low loss extra flexible cable that is excellent for HF operation and is usable well up into the microwave region. Aircell 7 begins with a flexible stranded center conductor which is surrounded by gas injected PE foam for low loss. 100% shielding is acheived through the use of both coated copper foil and copper braid. A tough outer jacket of UV protected PVC completes its construction. A full complement of connectors are available for AIRCELL 7 including: BNC, TYPE-N, and PL259.
