Times Microwave Systems Introduces New 1/2″ Plenum RF Cable for Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) Networks

LPA-500-LLPL^® Plenum Cable Supports Multiple RF Signals, Enabling a Complete, Affordable Solution for In-Building Wireless Networks and More

WALLINGFORD, CT — Times Microwave Systems^®, a pioneering brand in innovative RF and microwave interconnect assemblies, cables and connector design, announces the addition of a new 1/2″ plenum RF cable to its product line. The LPA-500 LLPL air-dielectric corrugated plenum cable is a low-loss, plenum listed (type CMP) coaxial cable. Available now, its design offers excellent intermodulation performance, and can be used as feedlines within buildings to support distributed antenna systems (DAS); public safety communications systems; RF backbone interconnects within plenum airspaces; and additional applications.

The LPA-500 LLPL is an affordable option that provides the quality and performance for which Times is universally recognized. The new 1/2″ plenum RF cable complements the company’s extensive portfolio that includes high-performance coaxial cables, connectors, cable assemblies, jumpers and other products for wireless installations.

As demand for always-on connectivity and the explosive growth of data continue to create a strain on wireless networks, DAS technology is increasingly being utilized to expand coverage and capacity. The solid outer conductor of the corrugated coaxial cable offers complete shielding with a continuous RFI/EMI shield that minimizes system interference.

The solid inner and outer conductors eliminate PIM when used with Times Microwave connectors.

“We added the new LPA-500 LLPL 1/2-inch plenum cable in response to customer demand for a complete in-building portfolio,” said Dave Kiesling, Director of Commercial Sales at Times Microwave. “Thousands of companies worldwide have come to rely on our proven history of building quality products — in the air and on the ground — and we are pleased to have created a ‘one-stop shop’ for those in the rapidly growing in-building/DAS market.”
