In our daily life, coaxial cable is used in many fields. If we classify coaxial cable, we will find that it has many different types. So what are the types of coaxial cable? The following professional coaxial cable manufacturers will give you a detailed introduction to the types of coaxial cables. Generally speaking, the types of coaxial cables can be divided into four categories: hard-line coaxial cable, triaxial cable, rigid coaxial cable, and radiating cable. The specific contents are as follows:
1. Hard-line coaxial cable
Hard-line coaxial cable relies on a combination of round copper tubes and metals as shielding, such as aluminum or copper. These cables are often used to connect transmitters to antennas.
2. Triaxial cable
Triaxial cable has a third layer of shielding, which is grounded to protect the signal transmitted along the cable.
3. Rigid coaxial cable
Rigid coaxial cable consists of double copper tubes and can be used as an inflexible pipe. These lines are designed for indoor use between high-power radio frequency (RF) transmitters.
4. Radiating cable
Radiating cable mimics many components of hard-line cable, but the tuning slots in the shielding match the RF wavelength at which the cable operates. It is often used in elevators, military equipment, and underground tunnels.
