Cable loss

Hello,

We are using WRL-18569 (RP-SMA to U.FL cable 150mm) for our products and I need the cable loss value of this cable.

Could you kindly provide me with this value ?

Best Regards,

That one doesn’t have a datasheet associated, but I found several comparable ones that list 50 ohms…probably best to determine with a multimeter

Unfortunately, neither cable loss nor impedance can be measured with a multimeter. I agree that it is a 50 ohm cable. https://www.sparkfun.com/products/18154 (a 100mm similar cable) lists -2dB of loss. Assuming of course that the cable doesn’t have gain, it really has 2dB of loss, so the 150mm would likely have 1.5 times the loss

Thank you very much for your replies.

I will take 3dB.

Best Regards,
