Coaxial cable Rangeful Mini UHF (male) to PL259 UHF, RG58, 10 m, 50 Ω

Rangeful 10 m coaxial cable with a Mini UHF (male) connector on one end and a PL259 UHF connector on the other is a 50-ohm RG58 assembly designed for radio frequency use. The flexible RG58 dielectric and braided shield provide a consistent impedance suitable for transceivers, antennas and RF test equipment. The cable length and connector pairing deliver a practical solution for extending connections between handheld or mobile units with Mini UHF sockets and equipment or antennas using PL259 UHF sockets.

Advantages

The cable combines standard RG58 construction with robust Mini UHF (male) and PL259 UHF terminations to ensure reliable electrical contact and ease of mating. Its 50 Ω impedance maintains matching for RF systems, reducing reflections and preserving signal integrity across VHF and UHF bands. The 10 m length offers flexibility for temporary setups, field use and bench testing while remaining sufficiently flexible for routing in cramped spaces.

Suitable for

• Amateur (ham) radio transceivers and handheld adapters
• Citizens Band (CB) radio equipment
• Antenna connections where Mini UHF to PL259 conversion is required
• RF test benches and temporary field installations

Key specifications

• Cable type: RG58 coaxial
• Characteristic impedance: 50 Ω
• Length: 10 m
• Connectors: Mini UHF (male) to PL259 UHF
• Shielding: braided shield with foil (typical RG58 construction)
• Frequency range: suitable for VHF and UHF applications
• Flexibility: flexible jacket for easy routing

How to use

Connect the Mini UHF (male) end to the device or adapter with the corresponding Mini UHF female socket and secure the PL259 UHF connector to the mating PL259 or SO-239 socket by tightening the coupling nut. Ensure connectors are clean and threads engage without cross-threading; finger-tighten and then secure with a suitable wrench if needed, avoiding over-torquing. Route the cable to minimize sharp bends and avoid kinking; maintain gentle bend radii to preserve impedance characteristics and reduce insertion loss.

Usage recommendations

For best RF performance, keep cable runs as short as practical, avoid parallel runs with power cables to reduce interference, and periodically inspect connectors for corrosion or damage. Use weatherproofing at outdoor connection points and consider additional strain relief for installations subject to movement or vibration.
