PRODUCT DATASHEET

RLKW78-50JFLA

7/8" RADIAFLEX® RLKW Cable, A-series

‡ RADIAFLEX® functions as a distributed antenna to provide communications in tunnels, mines


and large building complexes and is the solution for any application in confined areas.
‡ Slots in the copper outer conductor allow a controlled portion of the internal RF energy to be
radiated into the surrounding environment. Conversely, a signal transmitted near the cable will
couple into the slots and be carried along the cable length.
‡ RADIAFLEX® is used for both one-way and two-way communication systems and because of its
broadband capability, a single radiating cable can handle multiple communication systems
simultaneously.
‡ This RADIAFLEX® radiating cable utilize a low-loss cellular polyethylene foam dielectric and a
smooth copper outer conductor which offers a superior electrical performance together with
good bending properties.

External Document Links Notes


Coupling loss as well as longitudinal attenuation of RADIAFLEX® cables are measured by the free space
method according to IEC 61196-4.
Coupling loss values are measured with a radial (below 125 MHz and above 800 MHz) or parallel (125-
800MHz) orientated dipole antenna.
The coupling loss values given in brackets are average values of all three spatial orientations (radial, parallel
and orthogonal) of dipole antenna.
Coupling loss values are given with a tolerance of +5 dB and longitudinal loss values with a tolerance of +5%.
Note: Measured values below nominal are better. They are not limited by any tolerance-range.
In case of a conflict of operational and stop band, please contact RFS for further assistance.
As with any radiating cable, the performance in building or tunnel environments may deviate from figures based
on free space method.
