Feeder cables

with connectors,
grounding kits, tools

Feeder cables are typically used for

mobile telecommunication applications,
such as GSM, WCDMA (UMTS), TDMA,
D-AMPS, PCN, CDMA and TETRA. The
function of the feeder cable is to transmit
signal power between the transmission
equipment and the antenna in all
environmental conditions.

Low attenuation at high frequencies,

uniform characteristic impedance and
excellent return loss as well as high
mechanical strength and stability are the
most important qualities of NK Cables’
Ohmax® feeder cables.

The connectors supplied with our cables

provide excellent electrical performance
and ensure waterproofness per IP 68.
The corresponding tools are presented
on the following pages as well as in the
Accessories section of this catalog.

Jumpers
Jumpers are typically used to connect
the feeder cable to the transmission
equipment or to the antenna in mobile
telecommunication applications.

The design of the assembly ensures the

waterproofness of the jumper per IP 68.
The soldered inner and outer conductor
guarantee excellent return loss and low
intermodulation.

23
 Jumpers
with Ohmax® super-
flexible RFF 1/2” cable
HIGHLIGHTS OF NK JUMPERS

• Excellent return loss values and low

and stable intermodulation
• Waterproof per IP68 water immersion
testing specifications
• Test report with return loss and
intermodulation measurements
attached to each jumper

Stable electrical performance is ensured

by high quality Ohmax® superflexible
cable and special connector head design.

The design is based on three main

principles ensuring compliance with IP68
water immersion testing:
• 7-16 head sealing with O-rings
• induction soldering of the inner and
outer conductors providing 360 degrees
of contact and sealing
• enclosing the connection at the rear
of the connector with injection
molded plastic providing the external
waterproof seal.

Additional protection is maintained

during storage and transport by
watertight protective cap on each end.

For traceability, a weatherproof ID label is attached

Superflexible cables

with connectors,
grounding kits, tools

The extraflexible RFE range can be used

for indoor and rooftop applications
thanks to the excellent bending
performance. In some cases the RFE
range can replace the use of jumpers.

The superflexible RFF cables are typically

used as jumpers to connect the feeder
cable to the transmission equipment or
to the antenna in mobile
telecommunication applications.

The connectors and corresponding tools

are presented on the following pages.

SEALING COMPOUND PLAST 2000

CHARACTERISTICS

• Guarantees optimum corrosion

protection of the outer conductor
contact point between cable and
connector.
• Ensures perfect sealing between
connector and cable.
• Features a special bonding system
which protects the copper from
corrosion attack of any kind.
• Relieves mechanical stress in the
contact point of outer cable conductor
and connector, which is most
important for RF-technology. Any
forces affecting the cable are
distributed along the whole length
of the inlet sleeve up to the
contact point.

Plast 2000 is supplied in tubes of 20 cm3

or 70 cm3. The 20 cm3 tube can be
screwed into a threaded hole into the
cable inlet. The required quantity of
Plast 2000 is indicated in the relevant
connector assembly instructions.

TOOLS FOR CONNECTORS

Factory designed cable

preparation tools provide a
number of assembly
advantages. The required
assembly time is reduced
leading to a considerable
reduction of the assembly costs.

The cutting tools guarantee

constant assembly quality as
the fixed dimensions for cable
preparation eliminate
dimensional deviations.

WOODEN CABLE DRUMS

The drums are made of planed barkless

boards. The standard drum sizes used for
different cable types are specified below.
Special non-standard drums can be
supplied on request. Also impregnation
is available on request.

HANDLING AND TRANSPORT

Handling instructions are attached on

each drum. The reeling direction of the
D d e cable is indicated by an arrow. For
transportation and storage the cable is
protected by using wooden (19 mm)
lagging nailed on the outer rim of the
flanges. Plastic cover is placed on the drum
under the cable and also over the outer
layer of the cable beneath the lagging.
Cable ends are sealed with a shrinkable
plastic tube.
