ABSOLUTE COAX Series

 

The Absolute Coax series of cables are designed specifically to meet the requirements for EMC testing. Each industry has requirements that are unique. EMC is no different. Absolute EMC has gone through the selection process to only offer the best performance, quality, and value. Take away the need to spend hours searching and looking through specs and manufacturers to find what you hope is the best value. Three options are available, fitting most EMC applications.   

 

Absolute Coax A (AB-A)     • Cost Effective   • Ultra-Flexible    • Double Shielded Outer Conductor

Offering an excellent cost-performance ratio. Its use can cover up to 18GHz. It is ideal for short lengths and interconnection where losses are not so important. A great choice for applications with medium power and low frequency.

 

Absolute Coax B (AB-B)   • Ultra Low Loss  •  Low VSWR   •  Super Flexible   •  Light Weight   •  High Frequency

Ultra-Low loss coax for use up to 40GHz. This coax is ideally suited for high-frequency emissions testing above 18GHz.

 

Absolute Coax C (AB-C)   • Ultra Low Loss  •  Low VSWR   •  Super Flexible   •  Light Weight    •  High Power

Best ultra-low loss coax Ideal for high power handling and for low loss applications up to 18GHz. If above 18GHz is not required, this is the best coax with the best performance available. 

 

Absolute Coax D (AB-D)   • Ultra Low Loss  •  Low VSWR   •  Super Flexible   •  Light Weight   

 

Best ultra-low loss coax Ideal for low low-loss applications up to 6GHz. If applications do not require over 6GHz & very high power, this is the best coax with the best performance available.
