RG400 Coax Cable, MIL-C-17/128G

The RG400 is a high temperature coax cable used in a vast array of military and commercial applications. With a high temperature maximum of 200°C, in line with other coax cables like the RG142 Cable, this allows installation in heat sensitive environments.

Standard cable for radio installations. Double shielded stranded conductor, MIL-DTL-17 spec.

Approved for certified aircraft.

RG 400 Applications:

The RG400 cable is extensively and reliably used in the following types of projects:

• Radio frequency
• Telecommunications Applications
• Radio Systems
• Test Cables
• Signal Transfer Applications
• Interconnects

RG 400 Cable is also approved for direct burial. Whether it's being used in an in-flight entertainment system or a telecommunications application it is a very versatile coax cable to use commercially and militarily.

Per specification, RG400 coax cable will have splices. If continuous lengths are needed, please alert your Allied Wire & Cable Representative.
