RG8X Coaxial Cable for HAM Radio
This 10ft RG8X coaxial cable uses a 17AWG pure copper inner conductor with double shielding to reduce signal loss and interference. It is built for 50 Ohm RF systems such as CB ham radio, antenna analysers, tuners, dummy loads and SWR meters. The cable suits indoor or outdoor installations including Jeep Wrangler CB setups.
UHF PL259 Connectors Rated to 300 MHz
Each end carries a fully moulded nickel-plated brass UHF PL259 connector with a gold-plated centre pin. The connectors support frequencies up to 300 MHz and maintain a 50 Ohm impedance match. The design is intended for single runs where both ends use the same UHF male interface.
Flexible PVC Jacket for Simple Routing
A strong yet flexible PVC jacket lets the cable bend around vehicle trim or building entry points without kinking. Installation typically requires only hand-tightening the PL259 threads onto the mating sockets. The main risk is cross-threading or leaving the connection loose, which lets moisture in and raises SWR.

Questions about this item
Should I choose the 10 ft length or a different size for my installation?
The 10 ft RG8X cable suits most mobile and base-station runs; if the distance between radio and antenna exceeds that, measure the route and select a longer coaxial cable to avoid excess tension.
What does the 50 ohm rating mean when the cable is connected to my radio?
A 50 ohm characteristic impedance matches standard CB and HAM transceivers, so reflected power stays low and the SWR meter reads accurately across the 300 MHz bandwidth.
How does the PL259 UHF interface limit the frequencies I can use?
The nickel-plated brass PL259 connectors with gold-plated centre pins are specified up to 300 MHz, so operation above that range is not supported by this cable assembly.
