Belden introduces Brilliance DigiTruck coaxial cable



The new DigiTruck 179DT weighs 60 percent less and requires up to 40 percent less space than standard mini RG-59/U type coaxes.

The new Brilliance DigiTruck 179DT lightweight, precision video coaxial cable from Belden CDT Electronics is designed for use in mobile television broadcast trucks where equipment load weight is a prime concern and space is scarce.

This lightweight and compact cable can be used for analog, SDI, HDTV and AES/EBU digital audio transmissions.

Compared with standard mini RG-59/U coaxes, the new cable weighs 60 percent less and requires up to 40 percent less space. Standard mini RG-59/U type coaxes have a nominal OD of 0.159in; the 179DT has a nominal OD of 0.100in.

Despite its lightweight construction and small size, the coax is durable. It features crush-resistant, foamed high-density polyethylene dielectric. The cables also provide superior return loss characteristics.
