#22AWG, coaxial cable with >95% coverage braided shield. All tinned copper conductors.
Highly cut and abrasion-resistant polyether urethane jacket is stable for long-term immersion and remains flexible at very cold temperatures. Solid PE dielectric ensures that the cable stays round under pressure and minimizes voids which can wick water. Braided shield offers good flexibility while providing more robust coverage and better tensile strength as compared to spiral or foil shields.
Standard on all Aquarian hydrophone except S1e. Add to your order after purchasing a hydrophone with the "custom cable length" option, or order bulk with or without connectors for your custom patch cable. Please leave detailed instructions in the "Customer Notes" field of the order form.
NOTE: This is not a standard-sized RF cable. We use custom-made crimping tools and non-standard connectos. If installing coaxial connectors yourself, some connectors made for RG59 can work, but we recommend using solderable connectors when possibl.
