Description
Pasternack’s PE315 3.5mm male to 3.5mm male test cable using VNA test cable coax is part of our full line of RF components
available for same-day shipping. Pasternack’s exible RF cable assemblies are ideal for applications where tight bends and
exure are required. This Pasternack 3.5mm to 3.5mm cable assembly has a male to male gender conguration with 50 ohm
exible VNA cable coax. The PE315 3.5mm male to 3.5mm male cable assembly operates to 26.5 GHz. The double shielding
of this Pasternack cable assembly provides excellent shielding effectiveness.
Custom versions of most RF cable assemblies can be built and shipped same day. Custom cable assembly lengths can be
obtained by specifying the desired length on the web site at time of order or by contacting a sales representative. Other avail-
able RF cable assembly value added services include connector orientation or clocking, heat shrink booting and custom label-
ing. RF testing can also be performed to document the electrical performance of your cable assembly.
