Tight Bend Radius Capable of bending to radii as small as 8mm, the 141 SMNM+ series is ideal for making connections in tight spaces and dense system assemblies. Excellent Return loss Typical return loss of 25 dB to 6 GHz and 18 dB to 18 GHz makes the 141 SMNM+ series ideal for interconnecting a wide variety of RF components while minimizing VSWR ripple contribution due to mating cables & connectors. High Power Handling Capability:

  • 546W at 0.5 GHz
  • 90W at 18 GHz Mini-Circuits 141 SMNM+ series cables can support medium to high RF power levels and can be used in the transmit path. (NOTE: power rating at sea-level). Built-in Anti-torque Nut Supports the connector bodies during installation, preventing stress to the connector/cable interface. SMA-Male / N-Male connectors Eliminates need for adapter when connecting to SMA-F and N-F connectors, reducing cost and improving reliability. Product Overview

141 SMNM+ series Hand-Flex coaxial cables are ideal for integrating coaxial components and sub-systems in

tight spaces and dense system configurations. SMA to N-Type connection avoids need for an adapter between components with SMA-F and N-F connection ports, reducing system cost and improving reliability. Sturdy, hand- formable cable construction maintains shape after bending with bend-radius as small as 8mm. 141 SMNM+ coaxial cables have the advantages of wide frequency range and excellent return loss and insertion loss. Available in a variety of lengths.

  • SMA to N-Type Connection
  • Excellent Return Loss and Insertion Loss
  • Tight Bend Radius (8mm min.)
  • Ideal for interconnect of assembled systems

When used properly, this feature prevents possible damage to the cable due to torqueing and twisting when tightening the cable connector. To properly tighten the cable connector: 1) The cable connector includes a coupling nut which rotates to fasten the connector, and an anti-torque nut, which is fixed to prevent the cable from twisting during connection. 2) To properly tighten the cable, use a standard 1/4-inch open end wrench to brace the anti-torque nut. 3) Using a 5/16-inch open end wrench, rotate the coupling nut clockwise to tighten the cable connector. *NOTE: Mini-Circuits recommends using a 5/16-inch open end wrench calibrated to 8 inch-pounds maximum torque to prevent damage due to over-torqueing the connector.
