*Capacitance between conductor to shield.
Key Features and Benefits
- Outer conductor of fine 0.1 mm Φ OFC strands provide a highly flexible braided configuration. (See photographs A and B, Fig.2)
- Center conductor with 127 fine 0.1 mm Φ strands (50 for GS-4) increases durability.
- Highly flexible braided configuration.
- Electronic instruments.
- Oxygen-free copper conductor and shield.
- Low capacitance and resistance.
Note
The GS-4 and GS-6 have a layer of carbon plastic shield underneath the braided shield (Fig.1) to block out noise.
Shorting will result if this shield contacts the center conductor line, so special care must be taken when connecting the cable.
