Coaxial cable Rangeful BNC male to PL259 UHF RG58 50 Ω, 7 m

Rangeful BNC male to PL259 UHF RG58 50 Ω, 7 m is a 7‑metre coaxial cable assembled on RG58 dielectric, offering a 50 ohm characteristic impedance for RF signal transfer. The cable features a BNC male connector on one end and a PL259 UHF connector on the other, providing a direct connection between equipment with BNC and UHF/PL259 ports. It is intended for use in amateur radio, CB and VHF/UHF setups where a flexible, short‑run 50 Ω coax is required for signal feed, testing or temporary installations.

Advantages

The RG58 construction balances flexibility and stable electrical performance across VHF and UHF frequencies typical for hobby and mobile radio applications. The BNC male and PL259 UHF terminations enable interoperability between devices that use these common connector types without the need for additional adapters. The 7 metre length covers many short‑range routing needs while keeping signal loss within expected limits for RG58 at common amateur radio frequencies.

Suitable for

• Connecting transceivers and accessories with BNC and PL259/UHF ports
• Field testing and temporary antenna feeds in amateur radio setups
• Citizens Band (CB) radio links and short coax runs in mobile installations
• Laboratory or workshop signal routing and RF troubleshooting

Key specifications

• Cable type: RG58 coaxial
• Characteristic impedance: 50 Ω
• Length: 7 m
• Connector A: BNC male
• Connector B: PL259 (UHF) male
• Typical frequency range: VHF/UHF bands (suitable for amateur and CB frequencies)
• Flexibility: medium, suited for routing and field use

How to use

Before connecting, inspect connectors and cable for visible damage and ensure device power is off when attaching RF leads. Firmly screw the PL259 connector to the mating UHF socket and push and twist the BNC male onto the BNC jack until it locks. Route the 7 m cable to avoid sharp bends and kinks; maintain bend radii compatible with RG58 to avoid increased loss or conductor damage. After installation, perform an impedance check or simple SWR measurement with appropriate test equipment to verify acceptable signal transfer for your frequency range.

Usage recommendations

For best long‑term performance, avoid prolonged exposure to moisture and UV if used outdoors. Use the cable for short to medium runs where RG58 losses are acceptable; for longer or higher frequency runs consider a lower‑loss coax. Regularly inspect connector integrity and re‑tighten threaded connections if used in mobile environments.
