Notes on RF cables

Coax cables are available online either as assemblies (already with end connectors) or in bulk coils.

We are using two kind of cables: RG405(0.086") semiflexible for the internal connections; RG402(0.141") for the external interconnections

Here are two manufacturers that I found online.
