YOTENKO RG58 Coax Cable 75ft 50Ω PL259-PL259

YOTENKO's 75ft RG58 coax cable is a 50-ohm, dual-shielded PL259-to-PL259 lead built to deliver reliable RF connections for CB, ham, and VHF/HF equipment.

This 75-foot RG58 coax assembly combines a bare-copper center conductor with a copper-clad steel braid and aluminum foil shield, and durable PVC jacket, producing a flexible, low-loss feedline suited for many radio tasks. Both ends terminate in male UHF PL259 connectors with extended 6 cm heat-shrink reinforcement to reduce strain at the cable-to-connector junction. It’s sized for applications across 0–300 MHz and packaged as a single ready-to-use cable.

How does this cable maintain signal quality over 75 feet?

The cable uses a bare copper inner conductor and dual shielding (copper-clad braid plus aluminum foil) to reduce signal leakage and interference across common HF and VHF bands. Its 50-ohm impedance matches standard amateur and CB equipment, minimizing reflections when installed properly.

• RG58 construction with bare copper center for consistent conductivity.
• Dual-shield (braid + foil) to block noise and external RF pick-up.
• 50-ohm characteristic impedance for transceivers, SWR meters, and analyzers.
• PVC jacket balances weather resistance and flexibility for routing.

Are the PL259 connectors durable enough for repeated installs?

Yes — each PL259 plug is reinforced with a lengthened 6 cm heat-shrink sleeve that grips the jacket and connector body, lowering the risk of loosened connections from bending or pulling. This added strain relief improves longevity during field use and station rearrangements.

• 6 cm heat-shrink on both ends for strong mechanical support.
• Firm crimp and solder points reduce intermittent contact issues.
• Designed to resist connector separation under moderate stress.

Which radios and accessories are compatible with this 50-ohm cable?

This coax is engineered for equipment operating across the 0–300 MHz range and fits any device accepting male PL259 connectors. It’s a versatile link for radios, meters, tuners, dummy loads, and many antenna components used by CB and amateur operators.

• CB and ham transceivers with UHF PL259 jack.
• Power/SWR meters, antenna tuners, and analyzers.
• Dummy loads, linear amps, and marine/boat antenna setups.
• Walkie-talkie base stations and radio scanners within the frequency range.

How should I install and care for this coax to get the best performance?

Route the cable with gentle curves, avoid tight bends and sharp kinks, and keep connectors dry and properly seated. Periodically inspect the heat-shrink ends and connector threads for corrosion, and reseal exposed connections with appropriate tape or boots if used outdoors.

• Avoid bending radius smaller than manufacturer recommendations to prevent micro-losses.
• Use thread grease or sealing tape for outdoor connector protection.
• Check continuity and SWR after installation to verify a good match.

Who is this for: Radio hobbyists, CB operators, and electronics technicians who need a straightforward, ready-made 75-foot coax assembly with PL259 male ends. If you want a flexible, low-loss 50-ohm lead for antennas, meters, analyzers, or temporary field setups, this YOTENKO cable offers a cost-effective balance of shielding, conductivity, and reinforced connector strain relief.
