Power handling is a system property
High-power RF selection must consider the cable, connector interface, assembly construction and operating environment together. The supplied guide shows that allowable continuous-wave power changes substantially with frequency and connector type.
Important design inputs
- Frequency and required continuous/peak RF power.
- VSWR and mismatch assumptions.
- Ambient temperature and altitude.
- Cable attenuation and thermal behavior.
- Connector/interface power limit and retention.
- Assembly routing and bend constraints.
Do not select from a headline wattage alone
Power charts are conditional. Submit the operating frequency, expected power, environment, interface and assembly length so the full interconnect can be reviewed.
How to use this guide
- Use it to narrow product families and sourcing requirements.
- Confirm exact electrical, mechanical and environmental values against the latest manufacturer datasheet.
- Provide the exact manufacturer part number / ordering code when requesting availability.
