Coaxial Cable Rangeful PL259 to PL259 RG58/U 50 Ω, 7 m

Rangeful PL259 to PL259 RG58/U 50 Ω coaxial cable, 7 m long, provides a flexible, shielded connection between RF devices with PL259 (UHF) male connectors. Built on RG58/U dielectric and conductor geometry designed for 50 ohm systems, this cable is intended for short to medium runs where reliable impedance matching and low-loss signal transfer are required for antennas, transceivers and RF test equipment.

Advantages

The cable combines standard PL259 male terminations on both ends with RG58/U construction to deliver mechanical compatibility with common UHF sockets and consistent 50 ohm impedance. Its 7 m length allows greater placement flexibility for desktop and field setups while remaining flexible enough to route indoors or around equipment racks. The shielded coaxial design reduces interference and preserves signal integrity in typical amateur radio, scanner and laboratory environments.

Suitable for

• Connecting amateur radio transceivers to antennas or antenna tuners
• Linking scanners and receivers to external antennas
• Temporary RF test setups and bench measurements
• Short- to medium-length runs inside radio rooms and vehicles

Key specifications

• Cable type: RG58/U coaxial
• Impedance: 50 Ω
• Connector type: PL259 male on both ends
• Length: 7 m
• Shielding: braided shield for EMI reduction
• Typical use frequency range: VHF and lower UHF bands (dependent on system)
• Flexibility: suitable for indoor routing and portable setups

How to use

Connect each PL259 male connector to corresponding female UHF sockets on equipment and antennas by aligning the connector and threading the outer shell until hand-tight; avoid over-tightening. Route the cable to minimize sharp bends and avoid kinking; maintain gentle bend radii to prevent damage to the dielectric and preserve RF performance. For testing or temporary setups, keep the cable untangled and clear of high-power AC lines to reduce noise pickup.

Usage recommendations

Periodically inspect connectors for corrosion or loose terminations and replace or reterminate the cable if the shield or center conductor show signs of wear. For longer runs or higher-frequency applications consider cables with lower loss or higher-spec connectors, but for short to medium 50 Ω connections this RG58/U cable with PL259 terminations offers a practical balance of flexibility and compatibility.
