Marine-Grade Coaxial Cable – Built for Harsh Marine Environments

Marine-grade coaxial cables are designed to endure the extreme conditions of marine environments, including saltwater exposure, UV radiation, high humidity, and temperature variations. These cables provide low signal loss, durability, and long-term reliability for essential marine communication systems such as VHF, AIS, SSB, and satellite communications.

Key Features of Marine-Grade Coaxial Cables:

✔ UV-Resistant Outer Jacket – Prevents degradation from prolonged sun exposure.
✔ Tinned Copper Conductors – Resists corrosion caused by saltwater and moisture.
✔ Extra Shielding – Reduces RF interference and signal loss for clear transmission.
✔ Waterproof Construction – Protects internal components from moisture and water ingress.
✔ Highly Flexible & Easy to Install – Designed for use on boats, yachts, and offshore applications.

Compliance with USCG and ABYC Standards

Marine coaxial cables must meet the stringent safety and performance guidelines set by the United States Coast Guard (USCG) and the American Boat and Yacht Council (ABYC) to ensure safety, durability, and reliability in marine applications.

🔹 USCG Standards – Focus on fire resistance, corrosion resistance, and environmental durability, ensuring that all electrical components used on vessels can withstand harsh conditions.

🔹 ABYC Standards – Define best practices for marine electrical installations, ensuring that coaxial cables are properly insulated, shielded, and resistant to corrosion while meeting grounding and interference prevention requirements.

Using non-marine coaxial cable in a marine environment can lead to rapid deterioration, corrosion, and performance loss. Marine-grade coaxial cables are built for these extreme conditions, ensuring consistent and reliable signal transmission for marine communications.
