Coaxial Cable Rangeful HF400-PL-SO-15 — 50 Ω, Full Copper, 15 m, UHF (PL-259/SO-239)

The Rangeful HF400-PL-SO-15 is a 15 m UHF coaxial cable with 50 Ω impedance and full copper conductors. It is built for RF and antenna connections and terminated with a PL-259 (male) connector on one end and an SO-239 (female) socket on the other, providing compatibility with amateur radio, CB and many RF devices. The cable construction emphasizes stable signal transmission and corrosion resistance suitable for both field use and fixed installations.

Advantages

Full copper conductors ensure consistent electrical conductivity and reduced insertion loss compared with copper-clad alternatives. The 50 Ω impedance matches standard RF equipment to minimize reflections. PL-259 to SO-239 terminations provide straightforward mating with common UHF connectors, simplifying setup and replacement. The 15 m length balances reach and manageable signal attenuation for typical antenna and equipment layouts.

Suitable for

• Connecting amateur radio transceivers to external antennas
• CB radio installations and mobile-to-base links
• Temporary field deployments and portable antenna setups
• Fixed home or station antenna feeds where UHF connectors are used

Key specifications

• Impedance: 50 Ω
• Cable length: 15 m
• Conductor material: full copper
• Connector types: PL-259 (male) to SO-239 (female)
• Intended frequency use: RF and antenna connections (UHF connector standard)

How to use

Route the coaxial cable between the radio equipment and antenna, avoiding sharp bends and kinks. Secure connectors by hand-tightening the PL-259 into the SO-239 socket; use appropriate torque where specified by your equipment manufacturer to prevent mechanical stress. Ensure connectors and cable entry points are kept dry and clean; for outdoor installations, use weatherproofing methods such as sealing tape or boots at connector joints to reduce moisture ingress. Verify continuity and match with an SWR meter or antenna analyzer before normal operation.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, keep cable runs as short as practical and avoid routing parallel to power lines to reduce interference. Inspect connectors periodically for corrosion and replace or reterminate if mechanical wear or signal degradation is observed.
