Coax Choice for Short Run

stumble_butt · 10-02-2002

I'm mating a ZoomAir patch antenna with a Linksys WAP.

Linksys - RP TNC Connector
ZoomAir - RP SMA Connector

Short cable run of less than two feet.

Recommendations on the cable TYPE? LMR900 perhaps? At what distance would RG58 be to lossy?

TIA

Interesting for me too.

RG58 low loss cable(9006) is so much cheaper than LM400.
I was thinking of lengths about 4m long connected to an ex-galaxy antennae (moded). about 18db

I want to setup point to point under 1km.

Thanks.
