Standard Conditions:
For Attenuation. VSWR 1.0 ambient temperature 20C (68F),
atmospheric pressure, dry air.
For Average Power. VSWR 1.0, inner temperature 100C (212F), ambient
temperature 40C (104F), atmospheric pressure, dry air, no solar loading.
* Operation of this cable in the 4250-4400 MHz band is not recommended
because of VSWR spikes produced by the dielectric spacing.
