In advanced RF and microwave applications, it is not enough for a cable assembly to have low loss – its phase response must remain stable under real operating conditions. Flexing cables during connection, moving test setups, or changes in ambient temperature can all cause phase drift, which directly impacts measurement accuracy, calibration validity, and system coherence.

WithWave phase-stable cable assemblies are engineered to minimize phase variation over flexure and temperature. Using low-loss dielectrics, optimized coaxial structures, and robust construction, these cables maintain tight phase and amplitude stability across wide frequency ranges. This allows engineers to trust their S-parameter, gain, and phase measurements even when test setups are reconfigured or used in demanding environments.
