RG179 is a 75Ω ultra-fine flexible RF coaxial cable manufactured to MIL-C-17 military specification. It features silver-plated copper inner conductor, PTFE dielectric, single silver-plated copper braid shield and FEP jacket, with an outer diameter of only 2.54 mm. The cable delivers high temperature resistance, low attenuation, excellent shielding and great flexibility. Operating from DC to 6 GHz, RG179 resists corrosion and extreme temperatures. It is widely used in medical imaging, aerospace, test & measurement, HD-SDI video, military equipment and other precision RF signal transmission applications, serving as a key wire for high-end miniature RF cable assemblies.
