Precision Air Lines - 7mm Connectors

Features
Precision, beaded 7mm Connectors
Highly Accurate 50 Ohm Impedance
Mates with Precision 7mm Connectors

Description

The 2603 series precision air lines are beadled, coaxial 7mm line sections with 7mm connectors1 in which the center conductor is supported by a low-loss dielectric bead. The air lines are held to extremely close tolerances to provide an accurate 50 ohm impedance standard, and are fabricated from copper alloys with gold-flash protective coating (except those over 15cm which instead have a silver-layered stainless steel center conductor to eliminate sag).

7mm High Precision Air Line Kits

Maury also offers air line kits (see chart below) which are supplied in attractive foam-lined wooden instrument case.
