Times Microwave Systems Roadshow

Rojone is proud to sponsor a national series of Times Microwave Systems seminars regarding considerations, selection and application of RF Coaxial Cable and Lightning Protection.The seminar is scheduled to run in selected capital cities in the week beginning 29^th of February 2016 (see below for more detail).

Note that registration is essential to attend. 

Times Microwave Systems (TMS) is a leader in coaxial transmission line technology and production. TMS provide transmission line solutions for military, aerospace, wireless communications and industrial applications. Times Microwave Systems has also introduced a new innovative Times-Protect™ line of surge and lightning protection products.
These seminars offer the unique opportunity to hear directly from the team members responsible for product development & management.

Seminars:

Think you know cables – think again

 Agenda: (Duration 1.5hrs)

• Basic coax theory and design parameters.
• Low-Loss LMR coaxial cable, parameters and selection criteria.
• Review LMR range including standard LMR, LMR-Lite, Ultraflex, Plenum and 75 Ohm cables.
• Connector choices and attachment procedures including demonstrations of tools.
• Overview of specialty products including high power cables, Mil-Spec cable, flex cables and bundled cables.
• In-building Low-PIM DAS products. Overview of in-building/carrier applications and why low-PIM assemblies are critical
• UL/CSA approvals and other international (IEC) compliance issues.
• TMS coax types and industry segment applications.

Lightning Protection for Wireless Networks

Amphenol Nexus Technologies has been a long time manufacturer and qualified military supplier of airborne audio connectors, see MIL-DTL-9177. Our special ruggedized design has been the industry standard on military and commercial helmets and headsets for many years.
In addition to the mil-qualified parts, we offer a number of connector options for different mounting styles, switch functions, and soldier attachments. Electrical, mechanical, and environmental features of these connectors include:

• Environment resisting
• RFI/EMI protection
• Low-level circuit capabilities
• High cross-talk resistance

This connector design isn’t just limited to communications systems. Other markets are exploring the benefits of the quick-disconnect, rotatable connector design for harsh environments including oilfield/downhole systems and other commercial/industrial applications.
