How to reduce damages caused by bending during the use of Phase Stable Cable?

When testing Phase Stable Cable, the process of connector and cable connector location largely affects the stability of VSWR and insertion loss of the whole cable assembly. Analyzed from this perspective, the anti-bending process at the connector and cable root is the basis for measuring and selecting an RF test cable assembly. Prevalent thermoplastic sleeving does not play a good role in preventing bending as a better method is to add armor (specific armor types have talked about in previous articles). Experiments found that the choice of this measure of cable assembly, after a long period of use, even if the connector wear, the root of the cable is still intact.

In some microwave test environments, coaxial cable testing requires a small amount of phase change when bending, commonly known as "stable phase cable", in general, the phase stability of the microporous media cable will be significantly better than the solid media cable, multi-stranded inner conductor flexibility with the improvement of many, but multi-stranded inner conductor cable phase stability is slightly lower than the single-stranded inner conductor. In some occasions, the phase stability when bending is an important indicator of the performance of microwave cable, the prevailing outside diameter of about 5mm microwave cable in the bending diameter of 50mm, the phase change in 2 ° to 5 ° between the two.
