Innovation, quality and flexibility for new professional markets.
For over 50 years, Cavel – Italiana Conduttori has been designing and manufacturing high-performance coaxial cables in Italy. Today, the company expands its portfolio with a new range of 50 Ohm RF cables, developed for industrial, civil and military applications requiring high power, low attenuation and operating frequencies up to 12 GHz.
With this evolution, Cavel strengthens its leadership in the industrial coaxial cable sector, combining tradition and innovation to meet the demands of an ever-evolving market.
A natural evolution: from broadcast to professional RF applications
Over the past fifteen years, Cavel’s core business has expanded beyond terrestrial and satellite TV coaxial cables, including the production of LAN cables of all categories up to Cat.8. Today, the company opens a new chapter with the development of professional RF cables, aimed at technologically advanced sectors and applications where copper performance remains irreplaceable.
As Loris Bronzo, General Manager of Italiana Conduttori, explains:
“Coaxial cables are often replaced by fiber optics, yet there are many applications where copper remains essential. From 4G, 5G and FWA telecommunication networks to in-building communication systems or railway tunnels, Cavel’s RF solutions ensure reliability and low signal loss even in extreme conditions.”
Technical features of the new Cavel RF cables
The new 50 Ohm RF cables are engineered to provide outstanding performance in terms of frequency, power handling and attenuation, using high-quality materials and advanced manufacturing processes.
- Operating frequency up to 12 GHz
- Central conductor solid or stranded bare copper, balancing stiffness and flexibility
- Multiple shielding in bare copper (foil + braid) for optimal insulation
- Skin-foam-skin dielectric in physical polyethylene, ensuring constant capacitance and preventing moisture absorption
- Customizable outer jacket (PVC, Flame Retardant, marine and offshore versions) according to application environment
- Outer diameter range from 7.3 to 14.8 mm, compatible with various installation configurations
Thanks to these features, Cavel RF cables guarantee low attenuation, signal stability and long service life, even in high-power applications or harsh operating conditions.
Applications and target markets
The new RF range is designed for high-tech industrial markets where signal performance and reliability are essential:
- Terrestrial and satellite telecommunications (4G, 5G, FWA)
- In-building communication systems and radio distribution in tunnels or large infrastructures
- Civil and military equipment for communications and control
- Oil & Gas, marine and offshore sectors with dedicated jackets and certifications
- Railway and critical infrastructure applications
Customization and technical support
Cavel supports its industrial clients by offering tailor-made solutions, from prototyping to certification.
“Our strength – says Loris Bronzo – lies in our ability to quickly adapt an existing product to customer needs, providing customized and certified versions in a short time. We directly follow each project, from design to installation.”
This fast and flexible approach allows Cavel to stand out even against Asian competitors, ensuring consistent quality, dedicated technical support and complete Made in Italy traceability.
100% Made in Italy manufacturing
All Cavel cables are entirely designed and manufactured in Italy at the Gropello Cairoli (Pavia) facility, which houses both production lines and the in-house copper drawing plant – a rare excellence in the European landscape.
Every stage of production is subject to rigorous quality checks:
- in-line inspections during production,
- sample testing of each batch in the internal laboratory,
- complete material traceability.
The achieved quality enables Cavel to offer up to a 15-year warranty on its coaxial cables, confirming the strength and reliability of its manufacturing process.
