Coaxial cable Rangeful RG58-FMEM-PL-1 50 Ω, length 1 m, RG58, FM/EM connector, PL-1

Coaxial cable Rangeful RG58-FMEM-PL-1 is a 1 m, 50 Ω RG58 cable designed for reliable RF signal transmission in short interconnects. The cable features an FM/EM style connector on one end and a PL-1 interface on the other, making it suitable for connecting radio equipment, antennas and test instruments in portable and bench setups. Its compact length and standard impedance preserve signal integrity for near-field applications where flexibility and ease of connection are required.

Advantages

The cable provides consistent 50 Ω impedance matching for reduced reflections and stable RF performance. Its RG58 construction balances flexibility and shielding effectiveness, allowing convenient routing in tight spaces while maintaining adequate protection against external interference. The FM/EM and PL-1 interfaces enable straightforward mating with a variety of transceivers and measurement devices. Being a short, single-meter assembly, it minimizes insertion loss compared to longer runs and simplifies temporary or mobile installations.

Suitable for

• Connecting handheld or base transceivers to antennas for field tests
• Linking RF test equipment and signal generators to measurement devices
• Short patch connections inside racks, laboratory benches or portable kits
• Temporary or mobile antenna deployments and quick equipment swaps

Key specifications

• Characteristic impedance: 50 Ω
• Cable type: RG58 coaxial
• Length: 1 m
• Connector types: FM/EM style connector and PL-1 connector
• Typical use: RF signal transmission for short-range interconnects

How to use

Inspect both connectors and mating ports for debris or damage before connecting. Align the FM/EM connector and the PL-1 interface with their respective sockets and push or thread until a secure mechanical and electrical fit is achieved, depending on the connector coupling method. Use the cable for short-distance RF connections, avoiding sharp bends or kinks near the connectors. After use, store the cable coiled loosely to prevent permanent deformation and protect connector ends with caps if available.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, keep runs as short as practical and avoid tight bends that can increase insertion loss. When used in test environments, verify connector seating and check signal levels after installation. If the cable will be exposed to outdoor conditions, protect connectors from moisture and physical strain to maintain long-term reliability.
