Maury Microwave has released an updated version of its high stability Microwave/RF cable assemblies, called StabilityPlus. The StabilityPlus cable assemblies offer superior amplitude and phase stability with flexure, reliable and repeatable measurements, durable, ruggedized and crush-resistant, offering longer flex life.
Maury Microwave's StabilityPlus series sets the standard for high-performance ruggedized microwave/RF cable assemblies. Designed specifically for phase-stable and amplitude-stable applications, they offer excellent measurement repeatability even after cable flexure. With a ruggedized, durable construction, Maury claims, StabilityPlus cables will outlast and outperform other assemblies resulting in a reduced total cost-of-test. Its light weight, superior flexibility and small form factor make it ideal for daily use with VNA's, test instruments, bench-top testing and ATE systems.
The cable assemblies are now part of the Maury ColorConnect family. Following the proposed IEEE high-frequency connector/adapter color convention, StabilityPlus cable assemblies offer clear indications of compatibility and intermatability. ColorConnect makes it a simple matter to avoid and eliminate damaged equipment, degraded equipment reliability, degraded performance and lengthy maintenance times due to improper mating (and attempted mating) of incompatible interconnects.
Features & Benefits of Stability Plus Cable Assemblies
- Increased flexibility
- Reliable and repeatable measurements
- Durable, ruggedized and crush-resistant
- Longer flex life
- Available with both male and female connectors Available in both in-series (i.e. 2.4mm-2.4mm) and between-series (i.e. 2.4mm-2.92mm) configurations
Typical Applications Include:
- Vector Network Analyzers (VNA's)
- RF and microwave instruments
- Bench-top testing
- Probe station integrations
- RF production testing
- ATE systems
StabilityPlus phase-stable microwave/RF cable assemblies are available with N-Type connectors to 18 GHz, 3.5mm connectors to 26.5 GHz, 2.92mm connectors to 40 GHz and 2.4mm connectors to 50 GHz in 24", 36", 48", 60" and 78" lengths (stocked lengths vary by connector type, custom lengths available).
StabilityPlus low profile cable assemblies offer the same electrical performance in an assembly that is smaller and lighter, and are available with 3.5mm, 2.92mm and 2.4mm connectors. Low profile assemblies are ideal for use in high-density applications where larger connectors may block connections, such as multi-port switch matrix, and with lightweight PCBs where the weight of a cable can cause boards to bend.
