Built on the foundation of a low-loss RG8 coaxial cable, the Laird LMR400 Type series antenna cables are specially engineered for low signal loss, making them ideal for long-distance runs in demanding outdoor applications. These cables are widely used in various high-performance environments, such as point-to-point and point-to-multipoint distributed antenna systems or as the essential link for enhancing connectivity across large venues, stadiums, and arenas. They are also valuable in wireless microphone distribution setups, cellular transmitters, broadband systems, satellite communications, marine satellite systems, Wi-Fi antenna networks, and mobile military communications, where signal integrity and durability are crucial.
Each cable in the Laird 400 series is handcrafted by Laird's expert technicians, who use high-grade Belden 7810A coaxial cable. This cable features a robust Tri-Laminate (Alum+Poly+Alum) design paired with a dual outer shield made from tinned copper, ensuring maximum signal fidelity and resistance to environmental interference. Every cable is terminated with broadcast-grade, 50-ohm BNC connectors from Amphenol, guaranteeing a secure connection and high performance. This combination of premium materials and expert craftsmanship from Belden, Amphenol, and Laird provides an unparalleled solution that sets a high standard in the market for reliability and quality.
