RG214/U - MIL-C-17F compliant coaxial cable (≥95% braid coverage)

RG214/U is a coaxial cable designed for RF and microwave applications where reliability, long-term stability and compliance with the MIL-C-17F standard are required. This version is manufactured with a braid coverage ≥95%, a requirement often specified in technical specifications and procurement documents where effective shielding is essential.

Why choose this RG214/U

• MIL-C-17F compliant: suitable for projects and supplies requiring compliance with the standard.
• Braid coverage ≥95%: higher amount of shielding material compared to versions with lower coverage.
• Improved shielding effectiveness: better containment of interference and reduced susceptibility to external noise.
• Consistent build quality: suitable for technical environments where repeatable performance is required.

Typical applications

RG214/U cable is typically selected when shielding performance and specification compliance take priority over unit cost. Typical applications include:

• RF cabling in test and measurement equipment (test benches, instruments, inspection systems)
• professional radio and telecommunications systems (interconnections, shielded signal paths)
• systems with more stringent EMC requirements and environments with high signal density
• integration in cabinets, racks and enclosures where noise reduction is critical
• projects with technical specifications or explicit MIL standard requirements

Technical note on braid coverage

On the market, cables sold as “RG214/U” may be available with similar construction but lower braid coverage. Reduced coverage lowers cost by using less shielding material, but may affect shielding performance and compliance with specification requirements. In this version, braid coverage ≥95% is a distinguishing feature for applications requiring defined technical specifications.
