Coaxial cable Rangeful HF240 BNC male to PL259 (UHF), 50 Ω, 1 m

Rangeful HF240 coaxial cable with BNC male to PL259 (UHF), 50 Ω, 1 m provides a compact, impedance-matched RF lead intended for linking radio equipment, transceivers, antennas and accessories. The 1 meter length balances flexibility and signal integrity for short runs in HF and VHF setups. Construction and connector choice suit common amateur and professional applications that require a standard 50 ohm path and reliable mechanical connections.

Advantages

The cable offers a standardized 50 Ω impedance to minimize reflections and preserve RF power transfer between devices. BNC male and PL259 (UHF) connectors provide widely used mating options for many transceivers and antenna tuners, enabling direct connection without adapters in many cases. The short, 1 m length reduces insertion loss while allowing convenient placement in radio racks, portable stations or bench setups. The assembly is intended to deliver consistent signal transmission and straightforward handling in routine installation and testing tasks.

Suitable for

• Connecting transceivers to antennas or tuners in HF and VHF amateur radio stations
• Linking radio accessories, such as SWR meters, antenna switches or preamplifiers
• Short RF patch runs within equipment racks, portable setups or field stations

Key specifications

• Impedance: 50 ohm
• Cable length: 1 meter
• Connector A: BNC male
• Connector B: PL259 (UHF) male
• Intended frequency range: HF and VHF bands (typical)
• Use case: RF signal transfer between radio equipment and antennas

How to use

Ensure both mating connectors on your radio equipment and antenna or accessory are compatible with BNC male and PL259 (UHF) male ends. Align the BNC connector with the corresponding female BNC jack, push and twist to lock. Thread the PL259 (UHF) onto the matching SO-239 or UHF female connector until secure; avoid overtightening to prevent damage. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and pinching, keeping the bend radius gentle near connectors to preserve shielding and continuity.

Usage recommendations

For reliable performance, use the cable for short interconnections where a 1 m length is sufficient. Inspect connectors periodically for corrosion or loose fittings and replace if physical wear or elevated SWR is observed. Keep the cable clear of strong RF noise sources and high-power coax runs to reduce potential interference.
