LMR® -600
Flexible Low

Item Number: 54
Loss Communications Coax
• Jumper Assemblies in Wireless Communications Systems
• Short Antenna Feeder runs
• Any application (e.g. WLL, GPS, LMR, WLAN, WISP, W .Max,
SCADA, Mobile Antennas) requiring an easily routed,
low loss RF cable
• LMR" standard is a UV Resistant Polyethylene jacketed
cable designed for 20 -year service outdoor use. The
bending and handling characteristics are significantly better
than air - dielectric and corrugated hard -line cables.
• LMR"- DB is identical to standard LMR plus has the
advantage of being watertight. The addition of
waterproofing compound in and around the foil /braid
insures continuous reliable service should the jacket be
inadvertently damaged during installation or in the future.
• LMR'- FR is a non - halogen (non - toxic), low smoke,
fire retardant cable designed for in- building runs that can
be routed anywhere except air handling plenums. LMR -
FR has a UL/NEC & CSA rating of'CMR' and'FT4'
respectively. In addition, the LMR -FR series is MSHA-
P rated for mining applications.
• LMR'- FR -PVC is a general - purpose indoor cable
and has a UL/NEC & CSA rating of'CMR' and'FT4'
respectively. It is less expensive than LMR -FR, however
it emits toxic fumes (HCL) and greater smoke density
when burned.
• LMR'- PVC is designed for low loss general - purpose
indoor /outdoor applications and is somewhat more flexible
than the standard polyethylene jacketed LMR.
• LMR- PVC -W is a white jacketed version of LMR -
PVC for marine and other indoor /outdoor applications
where color compatibility is desired.
• Flexibility and bendability are hallmarks of the LMR -
600 cable design. The flexible outer conductor enables
the tightest bend radius available for any cable of similar
size and performance.
• Low Loss is another hallmark feature of LMR -600.
Size for size LMR has the lowest loss of any flexible cable
and comparable loss to semirigid hard -line cables.
• RF Shielding is 50 dB greater than typical single
shielded coax (40 dB). The multi -ply bonded foil outer
conductor is rated conservatively at> 90 dB (i.e. >180
dB between two adjacent cables).
• Weatherability: LMR -600 cables designed for
outdoor exposure incorporate the best materials for UV
resistance and have 1 ife expectancy in excess of 20 years.
• Connectors: A wide variety of connectors are available
for LMR -600 cable, including all common interface types,
reverse polarity, and a choice of solder or non - solder
center pins. Most LMR connectors employ crimp outer
attachment using standard hex crimp sizes.
• Cable Assemblies: All LMR -600 cable types are
available as pre - terminated cable assemblies. Refer to
the section on FlexTech for further details.
