EMTEQ has introduced its PFLX140-500 coaxial cable, which the company claims is the aviation industry's lightest 50-ohm single-conductor, double-shielded coax. At 0.140 inches in diameter and weighing only 1.28 pounds per 100 feet, the cable is flexible enough to tie in a loose knot. With an outer shield of aircraft grade polyethylene, the new PFLX140-500 offers more than 90 dB shielding effectiveness, produces low smoke and no halogen, and is resistant to Skydrol and other hydraulic fluids.
