FMCA2562/WP-24

Overview

The FMCA2562/WP-24 is a Type N male to Type N female weatherproof RF cable assembly manufactured by Fairview Microwave. It utilizes SPO-250 coaxial cable and measures 24 inches in length. The assembly features a 50 Ohm impedance and is designed for reliable signal transmission in demanding environments.

Feature Summary

• Weatherproof construction for outdoor or harsh environment use
• Straight Type N male connector on one end
• Straight Type N female connector on the other end

Applications

• Outdoor wireless communication systems
• Base station interconnects requiring environmental sealing
• RF test and measurement setups needing durable cabling

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific weatherproof rating and IP classification against your environmental requirements before deployment. Confirm that the SPO-250 cable specifications meet your frequency and loss constraints. Ensure connector gender and orientation match your system interface needs. Check for any specific mounting hardware requirements associated with the weatherproof boots.

Selection Notes

Select this assembly when a robust, sealed connection between Type N ports is required over a 24-inch span. Consider the SPO-250 cable's flexibility and attenuation characteristics relative to your application's bandwidth. Compare against non-weatherproof variants if indoor use is sufficient to reduce cost.
