Coaxial cable Rangeful RG213U 50 m, all-copper conductor, 50 Ω, PVC jacket

Rangeful RG213U 50 m is a coaxial cable designed for RF signal transmission with a solid all-copper center conductor and a characteristic impedance of 50 Ω. The cable is supplied on a 50-m length and is fitted with a PVC outer jacket that provides mechanical protection and weather resistance suitable for many indoor and outdoor applications where PVC is acceptable. Rangeful RG213U is intended for use in systems that require a low-loss, mechanically robust coaxial connection between radio equipment, antennas and other RF components.

Advantages

The all-copper centre conductor delivers consistent electrical conductivity and reduced insertion loss compared with copper-clad alternatives, while the 50 Ω impedance matches common RF equipment and antennas. The PVC jacket offers abrasion resistance and a degree of moisture protection, enabling straightforward handling, routing and installation. The construction of the cable balances mechanical durability with predictable electrical performance over the 50 m length.

Suitable for

• Antenna feeds for HF, VHF and UHF stations where RG213-type cable is specified
• Interconnecting radio equipment, transceivers and amplifiers
• General-purpose RF cabling in amateur, commercial and industrial installations
• Temporary or permanent indoor and outdoor runs where PVC outer sheath is acceptable

Key specifications

• Length: 50 m
• Characteristic impedance: 50 Ω
• Center conductor: solid all-copper conductor
• Dielectric: polyethylene (typical for RG213 construction)
• Outer jacket: PVC for mechanical protection
• Typical use: RF signal transmission and antenna feedlines

How to use

Measure and cut the required length from the 50 m reel, taking care to avoid kinking the cable. Strip the outer jacket, braid and dielectric according to the connector manufacturer’s instructions and install compatible 50 Ω connectors ensuring correct centre conductor and shield termination. Route the cable with gentle bends, secure with cable ties or clamps to prevent strain at connector ends, and avoid running parallel to high-power mains cables to reduce interference. If outdoor exposed use is expected, protect connector terminations with appropriate sealing or weatherproofing.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance match the cable to 50 Ω equipment and use connectors rated for RG213-type cable. Avoid sharp bends and repeated flexing, and if the installation requires prolonged UV exposure or higher chemical resistance, consider a cable with a UV-resistant or PE jacket instead of PVC.
