Gold gives the best performance
01 Jun 2003
Gold plated fittings offer superior conductivity, says Shakespeare, and are less vulnerable to corrosion in the marine environment.
This means lower signal loss than conventional, nickel-plated connectors and adapters.
The new adapter line includes gold-plated barrel and right-angle connectors for PL259-ended cables, as well as TNC, Type N and BNC adapters.
The new connector line includes a variety of goldplated products that fit RG-58, RG-58U, RG-8AU, RG-8X, RG213, RG-59, RG-6 coax and Shakespeare's exclusive LoMax cable.
Also included in the new line of gold-plated connectors are Shakespeare's Centerpin connectors. These solderless, easy-to-install fittings are available in PL-259 and PL-258 versions to fit RG-58/AU and RG8X coax, as well as the company's Lo-Max coaxial cable.
