Low-Inductance HYBRIFLEX™ Cabling Solutions

Reduced DC Cable Inductance Solves Power-Cycling Problem During Peak Traffic

 

Radio Frequency Systems (RFS) has introduced its 2x4 6AWG Low-inductance HYBRIFLEX™ Remote Radio Head (RRH) cable for sites over 400 ft. It features a special type of wiring to reduce overall cable inductance, solving the problem of Remote Radio Head (RRH) power-cycling during peak traffic hours due to voltage swings, which may occur in specific instances. The new 2x4 cable combines bend-insensitive single-mode fiber (4 pairs of DLC connectors), 2 pairs of low-inductance DC wires, and 5 pairs of 18AWG wires used to carry alarm signals. The package also includes a special RFS-designed DC insulating sleeve, used to properly protect and insulate the DC wires after stripping the jacket, avoiding possible short-circuits while wiring it to the distribution boxes. HYBRIFLEX low-inductance cables are also available in a 6x12 6AWG model.


Features Benefits
