DrayTek CAB-LTEA5 RG-58AU 5m SMA Black Coaxial Cable

DrayTek CAB-LTEA5 | 5m SMA Coaxial Cable

This DrayTek CAB-LTEA5 coaxial cable RG-58AU 5 m SMA Black is designed for networking hardware installations. It is intended for UK technicians needing a reliable RF link between devices. The cable uses standard SMA connectors and is built for signal integrity. Because it is a passive component, it requires no external power.

DrayTek CAB-LTEA5 coaxial cable RG-58AU 5 m SMA Black

This specific cable assembly provides a straight 5-metre run. It connects equipment with SMA ports where an RG-58AU cable is specified. The black outer jacket helps with identification in dense racks. So, it is a practical choice for structured cabling.

SMA Male-to-Male RF Connectivity

Both connectors are SMA male with a straight form factor. This provides a secure push-fit connection for RF equipment. Because both ends are male, you should verify the port gender on your devices. In practice, this suits patching from an antenna to a radio or modem.

RG-58AU Coaxial Construction

The cable uses RG-58AU, a recognised coaxial type for RF signals. This construction supports low-loss signal transmission over short runs. However, actual loss depends on frequency and installation environment. So, confirm your application’s frequency range before deployment.

5-Metre Black Cable Length

A 5-metre length offers flexible routing within a cabinet or desk setup. The black jacket helps distinguish this lead from other cabling. Also, it supports tidy cable management in UK server rooms. For longer runs, verify signal attenuation limits for your use case.

Straight Form Factor Design

The straight connectors suit standard panel-mount SMA sockets. They do not require angled adapters in most racks. This reduces strain on ports and keeps routing neat. Because the form factor is straight, check clearance behind your equipment.
