SPINNER Rigid Coaxial Lines components - robust performance

A rigid coaxial transmission line is mainly used in broadcast systems to transmit radio frequency signals between transmitter and combiners as well as between combiners and the antenna. The advantage of rigid coaxial lines is that the radiation leakage and attenuation, especially at higher frequencies, is lower than with flexible coaxial cables. This means that greater power can be transmitted, and higher shielding attenuation can be achieved.

Outstanding RF characteristics, best possible passive intermodulation and VSWR

The Rigid line coupling element 6 1/8" EIA ceramic high power version enables you to transmit high-frequency signals reliably and flawlessly with optimum protection of your sensitive equipment in a power range up to 224 kW @ 100 MHz, 148 kW @ 230 MHz, 120 kW @ 350 MHz, 78 kW @ 800 MHz 1) 2) with maximum passive intermodulation (IM3).

Coaxial flange connectors, generally known as “EIA flanges”, are connected by a coupling element. The flange connector system complies with international standards EIA STD RS-225, 339 IEC, DIN EN 122150 and MIL-F 24044. The EIA flange connectors are excellently qualified suited for pressurized systems and for outdoor installations. 6 1/8" EIA connectors are used to link two elements of a rigid or semi-rigid high performance coaxial transmission line for radio frequency signals. Typically, these are operated in systems for very high power transmission (from kW to MW), e.g. in DAB, DVB or FM broadcast systems or in high-energy applications in research facilities (particle accelerator, plasmatron).

Delivery scope: The delivery of the product contains the following items: coupling element, sealing, 12 x screws (M10x60 DIN 912 and nuts M10 DIN 934)

A coupling element component is used to join different 2 inner conductors to provide a continuous signal path.
