LMR-400 Coaxial Cable Assembly, Various Lengths, Fitted with N Female and SMA RP Male connectors.

Times Microwave LMR-400 cable assemblies keep signal loss low between your LoRaWAN gateway or Helium hotspot (such as the SenseCAP M1) and its antenna, so you can mount the antenna higher without wasting its gain.

Less cable loss means more of your gateway's transmit power reaches the antenna, and more of the received signal reaches the gateway. Every dB counts, especially on longer runs.

Previously, “RG” type coaxial cables were common between hotspots and antennas. RG cables are now a poor choice because of their much higher loss, which can also increase over time and reduce range and coverage.

LMR-400 Cable Assemblies Vs RG-58 Cable Assemblies

• RG-58 cable RF signal insertion loss over 10 metres at 915 MHz is nominally 5.2 dB (about 30% of the signal power gets through)
• LMR-400 loss over 10 metres at 915 MHz: 1.4 dB (about 72% of the signal power gets through)
