Coaxial cable Rangeful RG58/U 50 Ω, PL259 to PL259, 12 m

Rangeful RG58/U coaxial cable with 50 Ω impedance and PL259 male connectors at both ends is a 12 m flexible RF cable designed for short-distance signal transmission. It uses the standard RG58/U construction compatible with VHF and UHF equipment, ham radio setups and many radio transceivers. The cable provides a straightforward connection between antenna, radio equipment and coaxial adapters where a 50 Ω line and PL259 terminations are required.

Advantages

The cable combines standard RG58/U shielding and dielectric construction with PL259 male connectors on both ends to ensure simple plug-and-play connections. Its 12 m length offers sufficient reach for typical home, mobile or field setups while maintaining flexibility for routing and installation. The 50 Ω impedance is matched to common VHF/UHF transceivers, antennas and coaxial adapters, reducing mismatch losses when used in compatible systems.

Suitable for

• Connecting radio transceivers to antennas in VHF/UHF frequency ranges
• Ham radio station patching and quick temporary links
• Short-distance RF links between equipment racks, tuners and antenna tuners
• Laboratory testing and signal measurements at low to moderate power levels

Key specifications

• Impedance: 50 Ω
• Cable type: RG58/U coaxial
• Connector type: PL259 male on both ends
• Length: 12 m
• Typical use: VHF/UHF RF signal transmission
• Construction: flexible jacket suitable for indoor and temporary outdoor use

How to use

Route the cable between the antenna and radio ensuring connectors are clean and free of debris before mating. Hand-tighten the PL259 connectors to the mating SO239 or PL-series female sockets until secure, avoiding excessive force that could damage threads. Keep cable bends gradual and avoid sharp kinks; secure the cable with clips or ties at intervals to prevent strain on connectors. For longer installations, check SWR and continuity after connection to confirm proper signal transfer and identify possible faults.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, use this 50 Ω RG58/U cable in short runs where flexibility is required and power levels are within the cable’s typical handling range. Avoid prolonged exposure to harsh outdoor conditions without additional weatherproofing at connector interfaces, and verify compatibility with your equipment’s impedance and connector types before use.
