Material & Craftsmanship: 0.141-inch semi-rigid structure with a robust PTFE dielectric
Application & Users: Ideal for RF engineers and microwave system testing environments
RG402 Pre-Terminated Cable Assembly by Zhenjiang Worldpeak Communication Co., Ltd. (hereafter referred to as Worldpeak) is engineered for demanding radio frequency (RF) and microwave applications. Designed with a 0.141-inch semi-rigid structure, a robust PTFE dielectric, and a 4.15mm outer diameter, this assembly delivers dependable performance for PCB interconnects, phased-array feeds, and test instrumentation operating up to 34 GHz. Every RG402 Pre-Terminated Cable Assembly undergoes rigorous factory manufacturing on calibrated termination equipment and is 100% verified using a Vector Network Analyzer (VNA) to ensure consistent insertion loss and VSWR. Each unit ships complete with its own dedicated test data report, enabling engineers to integrate high-frequency links into commercial, industrial, and laboratory systems with confidence.
The RG402 Pre-Terminated Cable Assembly represents a streamlined solution for engineers and technicians requiring stable, repeatable high-frequency signal transmission. Built around a 0.141-inch semi-rigid coaxial core, the cable utilizes a high-grade PTFE dielectric material that maintains stable electrical length and impedance across wide temperature ranges. Worldpeak supplies these assemblies pre-terminated with a broad spectrum of connector interfaces to match diverse system architectures.
Whether your project requires compact SMA Male connectors for high-density printed circuit boards, weather-resistant N-Type Male connections for outdoor base stations, or precision 2.92mm (K) interfaces for millimeter-wave instrumentation, Worldpeak builds each assembly to precise specifications. By leveraging factory-controlled stripping, soldering, and crimping processes, Worldpeak eliminates the variability commonly associated with manual laboratory or field assembly. This attention to detail guarantees that every RG402 Pre-Terminated Cable Assembly delivers predictable mechanical stability and electrical integrity from DC up to 34 GHz.
High-Frequency Bandwidth Support: Capable of signal transmission up to 34 GHz, depending on the selected connector interface.
Stable PTFE Dielectric: Provides consistent 50-ohm impedance control and minimal phase shift across thermal variations.
Comprehensive Connector Compatibility: Available with SMA, N-Type, BNC, TNC, SMP, 2.92mm (K), MCX, and QMA connector families in both male and female genders.
Factory VNA Verification: Every single RG402 Pre-Terminated Cable Assembly is tested on a Vector Network Analyzer before shipment, complete with documented test reports.
Robust Mechanical Construction: The 4.15mm outer diameter semi-rigid design supports secure routing in tight enclosures while maintaining structural form after bending.
Custom Length and Phase-Matching Options: Tailored to project requirements with tight length tolerances and phase-matched sets for multi-channel array systems.

Choosing a pre-terminated assembly over manual field termination provides measurable engineering benefits for production deployments. Field termination typically requires specialized stripping tools, precise soldering techniques, skilled technicians, and access to expensive test equipment to verify performance. In contrast, factory-built units from Worldpeak are constructed using calibrated mechanical workstations that ensure uniform contact alignment and solder joint integrity.
Furthermore, because every RG402 Pre-Terminated Cable Assembly is verified on a Vector Network Analyzer prior to packaging, procurement and engineering teams receive documented insertion loss and VSWR data. This rigorous verification process prevents unexpected signal degradation during system integration, reduces troubleshooting time on the manufacturing floor, and ensures that large-scale radio frequency deployments maintain uniform electrical characteristics across all units.
Test and Measurement Interconnects: Deploying SMA Male to SMA Male assemblies to connect laboratory instruments with documented insertion loss for repeatable data collection.
RF System Jumpers: Utilizing N-Type Male to N-Type Male configurations as factory-tested jumpers for base stations and telecommunication hardware.
Mixed-Interface Adaptations: Employing custom adapter assemblies, such as SMA Male to BNC Male, to directly link equipment of differing port standards without external adapter signal losses.
Phased-Array Antenna Feeds: Integrating semi-rigid jumpers and SMP or 2.92mm interfaces into multi-channel beamforming networks where phase consistency is vital.
Aerospace and Vehicular Enclosures: Routing TNC or QMA configurations through bulkhead panels in vibration-prone environments.
Q: How do I choose between SMA Male and N-Type Male for my system?
A: SMA Male offers a compact threaded interface designed for PCB-mount modules and high-frequency, high-density RF layouts. N-Type Male provides a weather-resistant threaded connection suited for outdoor antennas and base-station jumpers. Selection depends primarily on operating frequency, physical space constraints, and the interface type of your existing equipment ports.
Q: What is the standard length tolerance on custom assemblies from Worldpeak?
A: Standard length tolerance is maintained at ±2 mm for assemblies under 1 meter and ±0.2% for longer assemblies. Tighter tolerances can be requested when ordering phase-critical sets for multi-channel applications.
Q: What is the typical production lead time for orders?
A: Standard-configuration assemblies ship within 5 to 10 working days. Large volume orders or specialized, non-stock connector combinations may require 2 to 4 weeks for production and testing.
Q: What installation precautions should I observe when handling the cable?
A: Always use a calibrated torque wrench matched to the specific connector series to avoid over-tightening. Respect the minimum bend radius of the 0.141-inch semi-rigid cable to prevent structural deformation of the outer conductor. Keep connector interfaces protected with dust caps when not in use, and inspect mating surfaces for contaminants before installation.
Q: Are phase-matched sets and custom labeling available?
A: Yes. Worldpeak offers phase-matched assemblies accompanied by electrical length data, custom serial-numbered labeling, and individual VNA test reports as standard OEM options.
Q: What information should I include in a quotation request?
A: To expedite your inquiry, please provide the cable type, the connector series and gender for both ends, the exact assembly length, the total quantity required, and any specialized requests such as phase matching, custom labeling, or specific documentation.
