About This Device
Panorama's C23T-1MP covers the gap between antenna and radio with 1 m (3.28 ft) of CS23 coax, factory-terminated TNC male to Mini-UHF (MPL) male. The CS23 cable underneath is Panorama's 5 mm double-shielded coax, specified as a low-loss alternative to RG58/AU. Two layers of screening suppress pickup from ignition systems and neighboring wiring, and the flexible construction routes cleanly through vehicles and enclosures. The TNC male end threads onto TNC female ports used on GPS timing receivers, telemetry radios, and many fixed antennas, and the screw coupling stays put under vibration. The Mini-UHF (MPL) male end fits the compact Mini-UHF ports found on mobile radios and legacy cellular transceivers. Keep installation habits simple: choose the shortest length that completes the run, avoid crushing or kinking the cable at panel exits, and dress it away from power looms where you can. A short service loop at each end makes future service painless. Panorama Antennas has designed and manufactured antenna systems and RF cable assemblies since 1947, and every CS23 assembly ships with its connectors fitted and tested before it leaves the factory - eliminating the most common failure point in field-built coax.
