Coaxial Cable - Attenuation & Power Handling Calculator

Coaxial Cable Data
Product:
Frequency (MHz):
Run Length (Feet):
Attenuation (db/100 feet): 0.0
Attenuation (db/100 mtrs): 0.0
Average Power (kW): 0.0
Total Run Attenuation(dB): 0.0
Efficiency (%): 0.0
 

The calculator above can be used to estimate the attenuation (dB loss), power handling capability, and transmission efficiency for some of the more popular Wireless Communications and MIL Spec cables at the frequency of interest (below Cutoff Frequency)

Actual measured values may vary somewhat from the calculated numbers based on manufacturing tolerances, cable length, connectors, operating frequency, and measurement accuracy.

The attenuation of cables with Bare Copper and Tinned Copper outer conductors can vary substantially from the theoretical value due to oxidation and therefore we recommend they not be used above 1 GHz.

Note: the outer conductor of LMR cables is the aluminum tape.
