Coaxial cable Rangeful RP‑TNC male to RP‑TNC female RG58 10 m 50 Ω

Rangeful coaxial cable RP‑TNC male to RP‑TNC female RG58 10 m 50 Ω is a flexible RF interconnect designed for reliable signal transmission between devices equipped with RP‑TNC ports. The 10‑metre RG58 cable maintains 50 ohm characteristic impedance throughout its length, providing consistent performance for antennas, routers, test instruments and other radio frequency systems where standard RP‑TNC terminations are used. The cable combines a compact RG58 construction with RP‑TNC gender‑reversed connectors to support installations that require a male plug at one end and a female plug at the other without adapting connector gender at the device.

Advantages

The cable offers a balance of flexibility and electrical stability suitable for indoor and light‑duty outdoor routing. Its RG58 dielectric and shielding design help preserve signal integrity across the 10 m run while keeping insertion loss predictable for typical VHF and UHF frequency ranges. RP‑TNC connectors provide secure threaded coupling with a gender‑reversed interface, reducing accidental disconnection and providing consistent mating with RP‑TNC equipped antennas and wireless devices.

Suitable for

• Connecting antennas to routers, modems or access points with RP‑TNC ports
• Laboratory and field test setups requiring a 10 m RF link
• Amateur radio and telemetry systems working with 50 Ω impedance
• Temporary or semi‑permanent installations where flexible routing is needed

Key specifications

• Cable type: RG58 coaxial
• Connector A: RP‑TNC male
• Connector B: RP‑TNC female
• Length: 10 metres
• Characteristic impedance: 50 Ω
• Construction: flexible jacket suitable for cable routing and handling

How to use

Before connecting, ensure both devices support RP‑TNC terminations and operate at compatible impedance and frequency ranges. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive compression; maintain a bend radius larger than the cable diameter to preserve shielding and dielectric properties. Thread the RP‑TNC connectors onto the mating ports and tighten by hand until snug; avoid overtightening with tools to prevent connector damage. Verify signal levels and device functionality after connection and inspect connectors periodically for corrosion or wear if used in mixed environmental conditions.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, keep the cable run clear of large sources of electromagnetic interference and avoid coiling excess cable tightly. Replace the cable if signs of physical damage or degraded signal quality appear. Use appropriate strain relief at termination points in permanent installations to reduce mechanical stress on connectors.
