With the continued advancements in wireless technology, users of portable wireless devices are expecting RFcoverage and uninterrupted service in various indoor, outdoor, and underground environments. Trilogy’s AirCell®Radiating cables allow you to meet customers’ high expectations by bringing RF communications to difficult-to-reachareas. Areas where RF signals do not normally operate. AirCell® Radiating cables have been tested and proveneffective for use inside buildings as well as in underground environments.
In-building StructuresLarge building structures often have poor RF characteristics because many of them are constructed withmaterials that interfere with RF transmission, resulting in communications "blind" spots. AirCell® Radiatingcable provides the solution to make communications possible in this environment.
Underground SystemsUnderground areas such as tunnels, metros, garages, and mines are isolated from RF coverage. Cellularphone and paging users expect their wireless devices to operate without interruption while traveling throughthese areas. The dual continuous slot design of AirCell® Radiating cables enables communications tocontinue seamlessly.
Trilogy’s AirCell® Radiating cables offer a combination of flexibility, strength, and superior electrical characteristics. Ourunique, totally bonded, air-dielectric design provides unparalleled structural integrity and total protection against watermigration. AirCell® Radiating cables have become the product of choice for providing solutions to coverage problemsin the following confined areas:
Trilogy’s AirCell® Radiating cables act as both transmission line and antenna, providing a uniform and powerfulsignal in propagation-restricted areas. AirCell® Radiating cables have two slots cut into the outer conductor thatallow radio signals to be coupled from devices like a cell phone into the cable. Conversely, radio signals are emittedout of the cable and into the phone.
Because of the broadband capability of AirCell® Radiating cables, a single radiating cable can provide coverage across multiplefrequency bands simultaneously, which makes them useful for both one-way and two-way communications systems.AirCell® Radiating cables are available in 1/2", 5/8", 7/8”, 1-1/4" and 1-5/8" sizes and in both 50 and 75 Ohm varieties.

RADIATING CABLES
Overview
Levels of Fire Retardancy
Standard cable construction of this type uses a weather-resistant, black polyethylene jacket and is used when thecable will be installed where fire retardancy properties are not required. For flame retardancy requirements,AirCell®Radiating cables are available with a non-halogenated, flame retardant jacket, which meets the most stringent fireretardancy requirements of UL, NEC, IEC, IEEE, MSHA, NES, and ICEA as shown below.

Advantages of AirCell® Radiating Cable
Multiband CapabilitiesAirCell® Radiating cable has multiband capabilities that allow several receiver and transmit services to operatesimultaneously, affording paging services and cellular systems reliable coverage from a single cable acting as amultiband distributed antenna. AirCell® Radiating cables cover all communication bands, so there is no needto specify operating frequency.
Low Attenuation and Optimal Coupling LossThe patented air-dielectric design and 91% velocity of propagation in AirCell® Radiating cables provide optimalcoupling loss and the lowest attenuation available today. This means continuous radio coverage for longerdistances over a broad frequency range.
Low VSWRThe unique design and precise manufacturing process of AirCell® Radiating cables allow Trilogy to offer thelowest VSWR performance in the industry.
Superior DurabilityAirCell® Radiating cables are longitudinally strong, crush resistant, and flexible. This rugged construction ensuresthat installations are trouble free and that in-service life and system reliability is maximized.
WeatherproofAirCell® Radiating cable does not allow water migration. The hermetically sealed, fully bonded design of AirCell®Radiating cable totally prohibits water migration through the cable. AirCell® Radiating cables are also protectedwith a rugged, black polyethylene jacket, which provides abrasion resistance and complete environmentalprotection.
Ease of ConnectorizationTrilogy’s AirCell® Radiating cables have the fastest field connectorization time in the industry. By using theAirCell® prep tool, installing connectors on AirCell® Radiating cables can be accomplished easily in less thantwo minutes. In addition, our connectorization does not require soldering, or removal of the center conductorfoam. Together,Trilogy’s cables and the connectors are an unbeatable match that optimize entire systemperformance.
Ease of InstallationAirCell® Radiating cable is simple to use and easy to install.The totally bonded design of AirCell® Radiatingcable offers excellent flexibility, making it suitable for tight spaces where bending and reverse bending are required.AirCell® Radiating cables can be easily routed because of their durability and lower bending moments.

Product Description
AirCell® Premium Performance Cable
Center ConductorThe center conductor of the cable consists of either a pure copper tubeor a copper-clad electrical grade aluminum wire with 10% copper by volumewhich conforms to ASTM B-566, class 10A. This lightweight conductorprovides both high quality and strength.
Conductor AdhesiveThe center conductor is coated with a proprietary adhesive to securethe dielectric discs to the center conductor. This adhesive ensures thatthe discs are bonded to the center conductor, which prevents moisturemigration and center conductor pull-out. In addition, the adhesive caneasily be removed to facilitate quick connector installation.
Dielectric DiscsThe dielectric discs are injection molded from virgin polyethylene (ASTMD-1248). These discs are regularly spaced to provide structural integritywhile minimizing attenuation.
Dielectric TubeThe dielectric tube is extruded over the dielectric discs using a virginpolyethylene (ASTM D-1248). The tube and disc materials are bondedtogether, forming hermetically sealed chambers that provide a barrier towater penetration. Since this type of dielectric structure contains a highpercentage of air, the cable attenuation is the lowest available.
Dielectric AdhesiveThe dielectric tube adhesive is composed of a proprietary polymer thatis co-extruded over the dielectric tube. The adhesive bonds the innerdielectric tube to the aluminum outer conductor, resulting in a strong,durable composite structure.
Aluminum Outer ConductorThe outer conductor is a continuously formed and welded electrical gradealuminum tube. In-process monitoring assures weld integrity, maintainsproper aluminum thickness, and corrects physical dimensions. Duallongitudinal slots provide optimum coupling loss and attenuationto ensure excellent communications.
JacketA UV-stabilized, black, polyethylene jacket is standard (ASTM D-1248).This jacket provides the strength and durability to meet the most demandingconditions. Fire Retardancy: optional fire retardant jackets are also availableto meet more stringent requirements.
