RG Mil-C-17 Replacement Coax Cable Assemblies

Quick Quote

SRC builds many drop-in replacement cables for RG and Mil-C-17 specifications. We have a variety of off-the-shelf flexible cable assemblies and we provide qualified parts list assemblies (QPL), or we can build a custom assembly to your specs. We have a large connector and cable inventory so quick turn assemblies are business-as-usual for many of our military, wireless communications and microwave OEM customers.

In most cases our RG replacement cable assemblies exceed M-C-17 specifications. For instance, our SRC316^® and SRC316TS^® Triple Shield coax assemblies offer 90dB and over 100dB shielding, are twice as flexible and offer 20% lower attenuation for the same price you'd pay for OEM replacement parts! Whether you need high quality standard coax connectors or you're looking for precision connectors we typically stock them. Need something special like pre-treating the dielectric, sweep testing, another shield, overmold, special markings, or a really hard to find connector? We can do it for you.

Let us configure your solution with your choice of connectors. Depending upon the frequency of your application, these cables may be assembled with MCX, MMCX, SMA, SMB, SMC, SSMA, SSMB, SSMC, TNC, N, 3.5mm, GPO (SMP), GPPO (SSMP), 2.9mm (K), 2.4mm and 1.85mm (V) connector options. Already know what you need? Then use our quick quote form and we'll get you on your way. The whole thing only takes a minute, and if you need assistance, just give us a call and we can give you all the options you need to make the right choice.

Still not sure? Let us configure a sample assembly for you to test and we'll send it to you free of charge. You won't know how pleasant the experience can be until you try us out!
