    So for what this is advertised as, its fine. It is a Coax cable with the connectors as listed. However, I ordered this to modify it to be part of a HAM radio setup, and found that this is the first Coaxial cable I have ever encountered that I could not solder to it. I have never encountered that, so I am unsure what kind of metal this is. If you need a coax cable just as this one is configured, then it will be fine, pretty well made. However, dont order if you intend to modify it for any purpose and need to solder it.

    This is exactly as described, and it works great for my Cradlepoint router. I need to convert an SMA end adapter to a BNC (coaxial) end adapter and this is the cable that did it. I took a picture of the BNC end, so you can see that is looking for a coaxial female end that has the two notches on the end, so you can slide this cables into the coaxial female end. If you want this cable to go into a female threaded end, this cable will NOT work for that, so just be aware of what you are ordering. I love the yellow jacket for extra protection on the ends, so they dont fray (think iPhone lightning cables) so I know I dont have to worry about that. Great selection and great cable. Would get it again.

    This fit my needs perfectly. Im testing a clock generator with an SMA connector and I didnt have any. So in lieu of getting an adapter, I opted for the cable with the SMA/BNC - and its good. Works fine, impedance checks-out and its harder to lose something this big.

    Another great cable from MOOKEERF. I have several of the brands they sell and all have been good. They test at or better than specifications.

    I got this to connect my nanoVNA to various devices around the shack such as antenna tuners and baluns and such. What I like: High quality connectors and cable. Strong strain relief at each connector makes it unlikely to fail at the joint. Their claimed cable loss is exceptionally low. I didnt measure the loss, but it certainly feels low-loss based on quality of the connectors and stiffness of the cable. What I dont like: the cable is very stiff. In fact, I decided not to use it with my nanoVNA whose SMA connector is not very robust and im afraid it would eventually be damaged by using such stiff cable. Instead, Im using a short length of RG174, which is flexible enough to take the strain off the nanoVNA. Although RG174 is lossy, a 3 ft long cable should have negligible loss for my applications. Note that Im only interested in frequencies below 30 MHz. For VHF and UHF applications, low loss cable like this would be much more important.

    I have several HAM radios that all have SMA Female sockets on them for antenna connections. I prefer BNC and have started to make them standard on all my antennas. For remote deployment of an antenna with a BNC connector into an HT type transceiver without a BNC adapter, this is perfect.

    If this is the cable you need and you dont mind it being white then this is the cable for you... Looks good and feels good and is overall very heavy duty. Good day & God Bless... Randall M. Rueff K9RMR

    I have quite a few Moonkeerf cables now and have impressed with the quality. This RG8x cable is no exception. It has very low loss. I have ran this from one of my hf radios to a dipole outside. I did add an SMA to UHF adapter to connect it to the tuner. Getting great readings on the nanovna. Moonkeerf does a great job on the connections and heatshrink on the ends.

    This is on me. I quit reading when I saw RG8x and ordered it. I should have looked at the specs better. The first indicator for me that it was different than what I was used to was how stiff the coax is. Thats because it has a solid core. This is fine if you will be using it in a fixed location. I was expecting the typical stranded center conductor which is a much more flexible and reliable coax for field use. After going back and reviewing the listing, this coax looked more like RG9 or RG6 Dual Shield coax (which is a 75Ohm cable). So, I checked it out with a vector network analyzer and compared it against some known RG8x cable. When checked for loss it was the same spec. When checked for impedence, it showed 50Ohms as expected. Next I cut it open to check how good a coverage the braid and shield were providing. Looked good. I wish this coax had a stranded core. Other than that, seems to be a nice cable that meets specs.

Stronger Connection

  • The length of heat shrink tube that connect the rg8x cable and sma/bnc connector is upgraded to 2.2",which can better protect the connector from falling off.
