RFS enables faster network deployment with high-performance jumper cables

Mobile operators worldwide can now deploy LTE, 5G and small cell networks faster with a new family of jumper cables equipped with next-generation connectors from Radio Frequency Systems (RFS), the global wireless and broadcast infrastructure specialist. Based on the 4.3-10 interface standard, the new addition to the RFS product portfolio leverages RFS innovations in Passive Intermodulation (PIM) and cable corrugation to deliver jumpers with the highest voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) and PIM performance available in jumper cables with similar connectors.
