LMR®-400 N-Female to SMA-Male

LMR-400 Coaxial Cable Assembly, Fitted with N Female and SMA Male connectors.

LMR-400 Helium Assemblies – The Coverage enhancement

Times Microwave LMR-400 Cable assemblies significantly boost the RF signal range and coverage for Helium Hotspot devices such as the HNT Nebra Outdoor/Indoor Hotspot Miner and the RAK Hotspot Miner.

This high-performance upgrade directly translates to higher revenue potential due to more efficient RF signal transmission from your Hotspot device to the Antenna.

Best of all, the low-cost nature of these assemblies ensure a speedy payback of your investment in these systm performance-critical components. With recent regulatory changes to reduce the allowable output power of these devices, every dB of signal loss is more critical than ever – as it directly translates to reduced Hotspot performance and presents an additional new challenge when mining for Helium HNT currency.

LMR-400 Cable assemblies – Low Loss Helium Interconnect

Previously Hotspot devices in Europe had a higher Power Output rating. Now that there is a new restriction on output power in Europe, it has never been more important to use LMR-400 Cable assemblies as the perfect low loss interconnect.

Previously, “RG” type coaxial Cables were used between the Helium Devices and antennas.  RG cables are now a very undesired option due to their very high loss characteristics – combined with their ability to increase their Attenuation over time – directly resulting in degraded Hotspot range and coverage.

LMR-400 Cable Assemblies Vs RG-58 Cable Assemblies

• RG-58 cable RF Signal Insertion Loss over 10 Metres at EU 868 MHz  Frequency is nominally  5.2 dB (that’s only 56.4% efficiency)
• LMR-400 Loss over 10 Metres at EU 868 MHz Frequency: 1.4dB (Much higher coverage, 74.8% efficiency!)

The difference between the two is 3.8 dB’s – even 3 dB’s is a huge improvement of x 2 the Power Output, this is a very dramatic performance boost!
