CB-196LN-50 is a 50 foot (15.24 meter) roll of RG196 low noise 50 ohm stranded core cable. 50 ohm coax cable, connectors, and adapters are commonly used in GPS and wifi (802.11 wireless LAN) antennas, ham transceivers, and other radio frequency (RF) analog and digital signaling, microwave, radar, hi-fidelity professional audio, non-destructive testing (NDT), oil and petroleum production, ultrasonic transducers, accelerometers, strain gauges, and some professional video applications.

About Low Noise Cable

Low noise cable is generally not recommended for RF use. In our own testing, we see characteristics which differ from ordinary cable, including phase delay and impedance variations with frequency. In the field, we've seen mixed results in the GHz range; low noise cables seem to provide the best results at signal frequencies in the low MHz or lower. Ultrasonic NDT, for example, uses low-noise cable with signals as high as 100 MHz, but in transient pulse trains, where phase delay is less critical. The results you get will depend on the application, and as always you will want to do your own testing before ordering large quantities.
