🔌 Key Features

• Low Loss: Constructed with KMR400 coax, this cable offers excellent shielding and reduced signal loss, even at higher frequencies.

• Durability: The cable is designed for rugged use, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications.

• Flexibility: While thicker than RG58 or RG8x, KMR400 maintains good flexibility for most installations.

• Compatibility:

  • HAM Radio

  • CB Radio

  • Antenna Analyzer

  • Dummy Load

  • AIS Antenna

  • SWR Meter

⚙️ Applications

This cable is ideal for:

• Connecting transceivers to antennas.

• Hooking up SWR meters or dummy loads for testing.

• Use in mobile and base radio setups.

• Applications requiring a reliable, shielded connection with minimal signal degradation.

✅ Pros

• Very low signal loss compared to thinner coax types.

• Quality PL-259 to SO-239 connectors with snug fit.

• Weather-resistant jacket suitable for external use.

⚠️ Considerations

• Stiffness: Being thicker, KMR400 isn't as bendable as RG58 or RG8x, so not ideal for tight-space routing.

• Weight: Heavier than lower-gauge coax, which might be a consideration in mobile or portable setups.

If you're considering this for a HAM or CB radio setup and value performance and durability, it’s a solid choice.
