Default Patch Cable Source ?

"Bob" wrote in message

Hello,

Trying to find a source who actually has in stock a coax patch cable.
Looking for a 6 inch length, SMA M on one end, and a BNC M on the
other.

Would be using to provide some flexibility between components.

Coax type probably isn't all that important, as it's a receiving only
application up to 50 MHz, and such a short length.

But a "small" cable O.D. dia would be, to provide some flexibility.

Lots and lots of sources on the web, looked at many, but none seem to
stock anything like this.
As the quantity is small, three pieces perhaps, having someone make a
custom cable doesn't make sense.

Is there a consensus perhaps as to which outfits might have something
like this in stock, and specialize in small quantity "stuff" like this,
that I might have missed ?

Thanks,
B.



Pasternack Enterprises has BNC-M to SMA-M adapters, and can make cables
with these end connectors using both RG-58C/U and RG-174. Cost will be
in the $25 to $35 range. I have done business with them before and been
very satisfied.
