Amphenol Times Microwave Systems Commercial Space Assemblies
Amphenol Times Microwave Systems Commercial Space Assemblies include three types of reliable and robust space assembly cables: MaxGain®, InstaBend®, and InstaBend PhaseStable. MaxGain assemblies are high-performance, ultra-low-loss, high-frequency microwave coaxial cables built with spiral outer conductor technology. InstaBend cables are flexible, coaxial microwave assemblies that connect RF circuit cards, modules, and enclosure panels. The cable can be bent very closely behind the connector, simplifying cable routing. InstaBend PhaseStable assemblies are low-loss, highly flexible, foam-core micro coaxial cables with a broad frequency range and strong durability. Amphenol Times Microwave Systems Commercial Space Assemblies are specifically designed for space assembly applications.
