Large diameter coaxial cables such as the LMR-400, LMR-600, WBC-400 and WBC-600 require heavy duty crimping tools.
Connector keeps in with FCC Part 15
The RP-4252-B connector is a reverse polarity (reverse gender) SMB bulkhead crimp connector with an SMB jack body and SMB plug contact.
By joining two adapters using a universal centre, coaxial adapters can be made with any combination of these interfaces.
All adapters feature Teflon insulation, silver-plated machined brass bodies and gold-plated contacts and are designed for low VSWR performance.
Both kits contain the RFA-4018-20 universal coaxial cable tester that accepts any Unidapt adapter to test mating cable assemblies.
The front LED panel indicates pass, fail, short, open conductor or open shield.
To test free cables, attach each end of the cable assembly to the tester and the cable condition is displayed on the panel.
The RFA-4028-WIFI kit has an additional tester, the RFA-4218-20, for Cat5/5E, designed to test straight and crossover RJ45, UTP, STP, EIA/10Base-T, 100Base-T, EIA/TIA 568A/568B, FDDI, ATM, TP-PMD and token ring cables.
The Cat5 tester automatically identifies the cable type being tested, and the LED display indicates shorts, open wires, reversed pairs, crossed pairs and miswires.
Both test kits are housed in rugged, foam-lined, impact resistant plastic cases.
