COAXIAL COMMUNICATION CABLES – Part 10-1: Blank detail specification for semi-rigid cables

with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) dielectric

1 Scope

This part of IEC 61196 applies to coaxial communication cables described in IEC 61196-10 It specifies the requirements for semi-rigid radio frequency and coaxial cables with solid dielectric and semi-airspace dielectric These cables are intended for use in microwave and wireless equipment or other signal transmission equipment or units at frequencies above

500 MHz

This part of IEC 61196 is to be read in conjunction with IEC 61196-1 and IEC 61196-10 The blank detail specification determines the layout and style for detail Detail specifications, based on the blank detail specification, may be prepared by a national organization, a manufacturer or a user

2 Normative references
