- Electrical: Specifications shown are full band (frequency range). Lower values are attainable over narrower bandwidths.
- Jackets: Brush applied polysulfide rubber jackets per MIL-S-8802 are standard. Silicone rubber jackets per MIL-S-23586 available on special request.
- Flanges: Flanges are attached to the flexible waveguide in conformance with MIL-STD-1866 using solder per QQ-S-571.
EXAMPLE: Part No. MSNS10-500-(V)-2.25B is cover flanges, polysulfide jacketed, and 2.25 inches long with brass flanges.
