Both cables are approved by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and original equipment manufacturers. Though suited for different needs, they’re as much as 75 percent lighter than many radio guide (RG) and MIL-C-17 cables – while delivering superior electrical performance.
PFLX: Resistant to kinking and hydraulic fluids, these cables offer excellent shielding effectiveness and flexibility with low smoke and zero halogen at high temperatures
