Why does Huber+Suhner report their RG400 cable as having max frequency of 6GHz?

(1/3) > >>

Huber+Suhner reports the max frequency of their RG-400 cable as 6 GHz (https://www.mouser.com/datasheet/2/829/HUBER_2bSUHNER_RG_400_U_DataSheet-1489640.pdf). The typical max frequency given for RG-400 cable is 12.4 GHz. I also compared the construction with Pasternack's RG-400 (https://www.pasternack.com/images/ProductPDF/RG400-U.pdf) and it appears to be identical. Any idea why HS would report such a low max frequency? Are they simply being conservative?

Clearly, no one is using the cutoff frequency, which is 33.6 GHz for RG-400.

That H&S, being among the industries' leaders, is applying conservative measures is certainly one half of the explanation. Looking at their connector specs does support this.
Another possible explanation would be that they would like to sell you a Sucoflex variant instead.

Yes, and RG-XYZ is not a standard. It has been withdrawn > maybe 30 years ago .

And yet, when you open the applicable MIL-C-17 typesheet (MIL-DTL-17/128C in this case, which is active), the designator appears again.

BTW, while 6 GHz is a bit low, I would not consider it beyond 8 GHz.
