Coaxial cable Rangeful BNC male to SMA male HF400 50 Ω, flexible, 5 m

Rangeful HF400 coaxial cable with BNC male to SMA male connectors is a 50 Ω flexible RF lead designed for signal transmission, antenna connections, test equipment and wireless systems. At 5 m length the cable balances reach and manageable routing in confined spaces. The HF400 construction delivers flexibility for tight cable runs while maintaining characteristic impedance to reduce reflections and preserve signal integrity during measurement and installation tasks.

Advantages

This coaxial cable combines a BNC male connector at one end and an SMA male connector at the other to provide a straightforward connection between devices with different RF interfaces. The 50 Ω impedance and HF400 dielectric and shielding design minimize insertion loss and standing waves across typical RF frequency ranges used in test and wireless applications. Flexibility of the jacket simplifies routing in equipment racks, laboratories or field setups without sharply bending or stressing the conductors.

Suitable for

• Connecting test instruments (spectrum analyzers, signal generators) to devices under test
• Linking antennas, RF modules and wireless routers with differing connector types
• Temporary or semi-permanent installations in labs, workshops and field measurements
• Prototyping and bench setups where flexibility and reliable impedance matching are required

Key specifications

• Connector types: BNC male to SMA male
• Characteristic impedance: 50 Ω
• Cable type: HF400 flexible coaxial
• Length: 5 m
• Application: RF signal transmission and antenna connections
• Jacket: flexible construction suitable for tight routing

How to use

Ensure both devices are powered down or set to safe operating states before connecting. Align the BNC male connector with the corresponding BNC female socket and push until the bayonet locks; for the SMA male, align the center pin and gently screw the mating connector by hand until snug, then use a torque wrench if precise torque is required. Avoid excessive bending near the connector ends and maintain a bend radius appropriate to the HF400 construction to prevent mechanical stress. After installation, verify signal levels and impedance match with the appropriate test equipment.

Usage recommendations

Store the cable coiled without tight loops, avoid kinks and exposure to sharp edges. For critical RF measurements, inspect connectors for dirt or damage and clean with suitable solvents if necessary. Replace the cable if any connector damage, persistent loss or intermittent signal is observed.
