When someone says “LMR cable” on a VSAT or radio installation, they almost always mean Times Microwave Systems’ LMR series — the industry standard for low-loss 50Ω coaxial cable. The range runs from the 2.79mm LMR-100 pigtail all the way…
The cable run between your VSAT outdoor unit and your modem is called the IFL — Intermediate Frequency Link. It carries the satellite signal after the LNB has downconverted it from Ku or C-band to L-band (950–2150 MHz), and it…
Pick the wrong RF connector and you create a mismatch that costs you signal, adds insertion loss, or fails mechanically in the field. N-Type, SMA, and BNC connectors are all used on 50Ω coaxial systems, they all look broadly similar…
A poorly terminated connector is the number one cause of signal degradation on an otherwise well-designed RF installation. LMR cables — particularly LMR-400 — are used on VSAT IFL runs, radio base station feedlines, and outdoor antenna installations where the…
If you’re specifying cable for a VSAT antenna, two-way radio system, or any RF installation, you’ve likely hit the same question: LMR-400 or LMR-600? Both are Times Microwave Systems’ most popular flexible coax cables — low loss, UV-resistant, and built…
