Radiating Coaxial Cables 50 Ohm, For Underground Applications

Main Characteristics Applications
Radiating coaxial cable functions as a continuous antenna to Mobile communication in:
solve RF coverage problems in shielded areas such as tunnels, • Train radio and subway mobile communication
buildings and other underground spaces. • Highway tunnels
Slots in the outer conductor allow portions of the transmission energy • Underground parking garages
to radiate from the inside toward the outside of the cable to form a
• Fire alarm, emergency radio and paging systems in
circumference of uniform electrical energy around the around the
cable. underground streets

Due to this feature, users can communicate by receiving radiated

energy with adequately coupled radio antenna equipment.
