The M17/128-RG400, commonly known as RG400 coaxial cable, is a high-temperature, flexible cable widely used in military and commercial applications. Below are its key specifications: Electrical Specifications: - Impedance: 50 ± 2 ohms
- Capacitance: 29.4 pF/ft
- Maximum Voltage: 1,900 volts RMS
- Velocity of Propagation: 69.5%
- Maximum Frequency: 12.4 GHz
Attenuation (Loss) per 100 Feet: Frequency (MHz) | Typical Attenuation (dB) | Maximum Attenuation (dB) |
---|
100 | 4.1 | 4.5 | 400 | 8.6 | 10.5 | 1,000 | 14.2 | 18.1 | 2,400 | 23.6 | 30.2 | 5,000 | 37.0 | 52.1 | 10,000 | 57.8 | 78.0 |
Note: Attenuation values represent signal loss over a 100-foot length of cable. Power Handling Capability: Frequency (MHz) | Power (Watts) |

10 | 1,869 | 30 | 1,072 | 50 | 827 | 100 | 580 | 400 | 282 | 1,000 | 173 | 1,500 | 138 | 2,000 | 118 | 2,500 | 104 | 3,000 | 93 |
Note: Power handling values are based on sea level conditions, ambient temperature of +40°C, and a Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) of 1:1. Mechanical Properties: - Inner Conductor: Silver-coated copper, 19 strands of 0.008" diameter
- Dielectric: Solid Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)
- Shields: Double silver-coated copper braids
- Jacket: Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene (FEP) Type IX per MIL-C-17
- Overall Diameter: 0.195 inches (4.95 mm)
- Weight: Approximately 50 lbs per 1,000 feet
- Minimum Bend Radius: 1.0 inch
- Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to +200°C
These specifications make RG400 coaxial cable suitable for high-frequency applications requiring durability and consistent performance across a wide temperature range.
