Coaxial cable Rangeful PL259 to PL259 HF400 flexible 30 m 50 Ω

Flexible HF400 coaxial cable Rangeful PL259 to PL259 30 m 50 Ω is a ready-made RF lead designed for HF, VHF and UHF radio use. The assembly includes PL259 (UHF) male connectors on both ends and a 30 metre length of HF400-type flexible coax. The cable maintains a nominal 50 Ω characteristic impedance and is intended for antenna feeds, transceiver connections and other amateur radio or professional RF link applications where a flexible, low-loss feedline is required.

Advantages

The cable combines a flexible HF400 construction with factory-fitted PL259 connectors, providing immediate plug-and-play compatibility with equipment that uses UHF-style connectors. Its 50 Ω impedance and controlled geometry reduce reflections and help maintain consistent signal transfer over the 30 m run. The flexible jacket and braid offer easier handling and routing in temporary field deployments or inside station environments, while the assembled ends remove the need for on-site crimping or soldering of connector fittings.

Suitable for

• Antenna feedlines for HF, VHF and UHF transceivers
• Amateur (ham) radio station cabling and temporary field setups
• Connections between radio transceiver and antenna tuner or switch
• Portable and mobile installations where flexibility and quick setup are needed

Key specifications

• Cable type: HF400 flexible coaxial
• Connector type: PL259 (male) on both ends
• Length: 30 m
• Characteristic impedance: 50 Ω
• Intended frequency range: HF/VHF/UHF radio bands
• Construction: flexible outer jacket with braided shield

How to use

Route the coaxial cable between the radio transceiver and the antenna or antenna tuner, avoiding sharp bends and tight loops that can deform the cable. Connect each PL259 connector to the corresponding UHF-style socket and hand-tighten; if required, use appropriate torque techniques or an inline adaptor to ensure reliable mechanical and electrical contact. Keep the cable run clear of strong electrical noise sources and secure it with non-constricting ties to prevent strain on the connector interfaces.

Usage recommendations

For best RF performance, minimize additional adapters and long exposed connector joints. When deploying outdoors, ensure connectors and any exposed connections are weather-protected with suitable sealing tape or boots. Periodically inspect the cable jacket and connector terminations for wear or corrosion, and replace the assembly if shielding integrity is compromised.
