Coaxial cable Rangeful HF400 10m, 50 Ω, full copper, BNC male to PL259 (UHF)

The Rangeful HF400 10m coaxial cable with a BNC male to PL259 (UHF) connector is designed for HF and VHF radio connections requiring a 50 Ω transmission line. Constructed with full copper conductors, this 10-metre cable aims to provide stable signal transfer between transceivers, antennas and other radio equipment. The cable's impedance and connector combination suit common amateur radio, base station and test-bench configurations.

Advantages

This coaxial cable features full copper conductors that ensure consistent electrical conductivity and reduced insertion loss compared with copper-clad alternatives. The 50 Ω characteristic impedance supports a wide range of HF and VHF applications and helps maintain impedance matching between radio equipment and antennas. The BNC male to PL259 (UHF) connector pair offers compatibility with many transceivers and antenna mounts while keeping connections secure and straightforward.

Suitable for

• Amateur (ham) radio transceivers and receivers
• Base station antenna feedlines and patch connections
• Laboratory and test setups requiring temporary or semi-permanent RF connections
• VHF/UHF radio equipment for mobile or fixed installations

Key specifications

• Cable length: 10 metres
• Characteristic impedance: 50 Ω
• Conductor material: full copper
• Connector A: BNC male
• Connector B: PL259 (UHF)
• Frequency range: intended for HF and VHF bands (typical use)

How to use

Connect the BNC male end to a compatible BNC socket on the transceiver or test instrument and the PL259 end to the corresponding UHF socket on the antenna or base station equipment. Ensure connectors are aligned and pushed or threaded as appropriate for a secure mechanical and electrical connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends, pinch points and proximity to power lines or noisy electronic equipment to minimize interference and preserve performance.

Usage recommendations

For best results, verify impedance matching of connected devices, avoid exceeding recommended bend radii, and inspect connector interfaces periodically for corrosion or loose contacts. Use appropriate strain relief at endpoints in permanent installations to reduce mechanical stress on connectors.
