The RG59 B/U is a flexible and favourable coaxial cable for many applications (50Ω see RG58). This line is compliant with the UL-Standard MIL C 17.
RG59 B/U: (Sheath colour: black) 75 Ω; Temperature range from -35°C up to +80°C

RG59 vs. arnoflex 59 LSNH
Since we always want to offer our customers only the best quality and at the same time affordable prices, we have launched our own brand arnoflex together with a European cable manufacturer. Our arnoflex cables are a low-cost alternative to well-known branded cables, with equivalent and in some cases better mechanical and electrical properties.
In contrast to the RG59, the arnoflex 59 LSNH has better attenuation values and is halogen-free. In addition, the RG59 C/U is single-shielded, while the arnoflex 59 LSNH is double-shielded.
Difference RG59 B/U to normal line:
The RG59 B/U is a 6.00 mm thick coaxial radio frequency cable.
Single shielded and suitable for most applications, e.g. video and IF lines.
The conductor is isolated from the shielding by the dielectric medium and is located in the centre of the cable. The geometry must be very accurate and precise. When a coaxial cable is bent with a smaller bending radius than permitted, the electrical values will be neglected and cable cannot be used anymore for certain applications.
Common connector combinations:
BNC, TNC, R-TNC, N, UHF, 1.6/5.6, LEMO,
each plug, socket or also installation socket
