Coaxial Cable Elektrokabel EK-H155 (YWLXpek 50 - 1.17 mm² conductor / 3.9 mm² shield)

Elektrokabel EK-H155 (YWLXpek 50) is a coaxial cable designed for RF signal transmission and distribution. It features a central conductor with a cross-sectional area of 1.17 mm² and a shield cross-section of 3.9 mm², providing mechanical robustness and stable electrical characteristics for feeders, antenna lines and CCTV installations in residential and commercial environments.

Advantages

The cable construction combines a substantial centre conductor and a solid shield to reduce insertion loss and preserve signal integrity over medium distances. Its geometry and materials are optimised for compatibility with standard 50 ohm systems, facilitating reliable connections to antennas, receivers and video equipment. The cable offers a balance of mechanical strength and flexibility suitable for fixed installations and routing through conduits.

Suitable for

• Antenna feeders and terrestrial TV distribution
• CCTV camera signal lines and video transmission
• Low-loss RF links in residential and small commercial installations
• Internal routing where shield performance and conductor size matter

Key specifications

• Cable type: Coaxial, 50 ohm nominal impedance
• Central conductor cross-section: 1.17 mm²
• Shield cross-section: 3.9 mm²
• Typical applications: RF distribution, antenna feeder, CCTV video
• Construction: solid central conductor with concentric shielding for reduced loss

How to use

Strip the outer jacket and dielectric carefully to expose the central conductor and shield without nicking them. Terminate with connectors rated for 50 ohm coaxial cable and ensure a secure mechanical and electrical connection between shield and connector body. Route the cable avoiding sharp bends and crushing; maintain recommended bend radius for coaxial cables to prevent impedance changes and increased return loss. Use appropriate sealing and weatherproofing at outdoor terminations.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, match cable length and connector types to the specific installation, keep runs as short as practical to reduce loss, and use quality 50 ohm connectors crimped or soldered according to manufacturer instructions. Avoid coiling excess cable tightly and protect from prolonged exposure to UV and moisture if used outdoors.
