There is no fixed weight for standard coaxial cable assemblies, as it is determined by multiple key factors. Understanding these factors and practical weight references is crucial for engineers, purchasers, and anyone involved in selecting or installing coaxial cable systems.
The RG (Radio Guide) series is the backbone of standard coaxial cables, and different models vary significantly in weight due to differences in conductor size, insulation thickness, and shielding materials:
Standard coaxial assemblies typically have two connectors (one on each end), and their weight adds directly to the total:
Weight has a linear relationship with length—longer cables mean proportionally higher weight. For example:
Shielding protects against electromagnetic interference (EMI), and its layers affect weight:
To simplify selection, below is a weight breakdown for widely used standard coaxial cable assemblies:
| Assembly Model (Cable + Connectors) | Cable Weight (g/m) | Connector Weight (per piece, g) | Total Weight (1m Assembly, g) | Total Weight (3m Assembly, g) |
| RG-174 + SMA | 12 | 6 | 24 (12 + 6×2) | 48 (36 + 12) |
| RG-59 + BNC | 22 | 10 | 42 (22 + 10×2) | 86 (66 + 20) |
| RG-6 + F-Type | 28 | 4 | 36 (28 + 4×2) | 92 (84 + 8) |
| RG-213 + N-Type | 85 | 18 | 121 (85 + 18×2) | 291 (255 + 36) |
When selecting standard coaxial cable assemblies, weight accuracy and consistent quality are non-negotiable—and FRS delivers both. As a professional manufacturer, FRS specializes in standard RG-series assemblies (RG-174, RG-59, RG-6, RG-213, etc.) paired with SMA, BNC, N-Type, or F-Type connectors. We optimize weight by using high-grade insulation and shielding materials, while every assembly undergoes strict weight testing to meet your application needs—whether for aerospace, industrial, or telecom use.
