Extraflexible Cable

HELIAX® superflexible and extraflexible cables are designed for ease of installation in tight wiring spaces in shelters, radio rooms, and plenums.
These cables are perfect for antenna and equipment room jumpers. Like all HELIAX cables, superflexible cables feature a solid outer conductor for unsurpassed electrical and mechanical performance.
A polyethelene foam dielectric offers excellent electrical performance and prevents water migration.

Flexibility
Andrew HELIAX Extraflexible cables are manufactured with deep, annular corrugations. These exclusive corrugating processes permit Andrew cables and assemblies to be bent on very tight radii, without any degradation in performance. In addition, numerous reverse bends can be made, again without loss in performance.

Superior Electrical Performance
HELIAX cables and assemblies offer specifiers and users superior electrical performance in smaller sized cables. HELIAX cables and assemblies provide excellent attenuation and superior power handling and shielding versus comparably sized braided cables.
