Boost to RF cable assembly meets market demand

In response to the growing demand for standard and custom-built cable assemblies, Vitelec Electronics has doubled the capacity of its RF cable assembly facility at Bordon, Hampshire.

In response to the growing demand from design engineers, installers and OEMs for standard and custom-built cable assemblies, Vitelec Electronics has doubled the capacity of its RF cable assembly facility at Bordon, Hampshire.

This dedicated facility offers the customer help at every stage in their project life cycle - from initial design concept through to full production.

At the outset of any new project, Vitelec's specialist engineers are on hand to assist the project designers in their selection of suitable connectors and cable assembly configurations.

Once the initial design is determined Vitelec will build samples for full evaluation and testing and will continue to work closely with the customer to insure that the optimum final design is achieved to meet the project requirements.

"This is a very significant development for us", commented Peter Walmsley, Vitelec's European Sales and Marketing Director.

"As demand for standard and custom-built RF cable assemblies continues to grow this increase in our capacity will significantly enhance the service we are able to offer to our customers and illustrates our long-term commitment to the UK and European market place".

The RF cable assemblies manufactured by Vitelec are designed for many diverse applications with frequency requirements from DC to 18GHz.

But whatever the application or frequency requirements they are all produced to the same exacting quality standards and, if required, are 100% tested prior to shipment to the customer.

As part of Emerson Network Power, Vitelec is able to offer cable-manufacturing capabilities extending from hand built customer specials to fully automated production of high volume standard assemblies.

For higher frequency applications the performance of each individual cable is checked on a network analyser and a plot of the results can be supplied with the cable.

Cable assemblies can be designed and manufactured using any of Vitelec's wide ranges of standard, miniature, subminiature and microminiature RF coaxial connectors terminated to most industry standard flexible, semirigid and conformable cables.

An important element in the expansion of the Vitelec RF cable assembly facility has been the measures taken to reduce costs.

Every aspect of the design and manufacturing process is subject to continuous scrutiny in order to identify and eliminate inefficiencies and wastage and to insure the most cost efficient assembly methods are used for each type of cable.

This means the customer benefits by receiving a competitive price for a high quality solution to fully meet the design requirements of the project.
