i was looking for a low loss antenna cable for a 2.4Ghz wireless project.
i found that the best is the "CNT 600" (0,141 dB @ meter at 2.4 GHz)
Can you suggest me a good internet shop to buy it?
thanx

That cable is big (15mm OD) and heavy (~20Kg/100m), so you should probably look for someplace nearby.

Are you sure you want to go with this? The inner conductor is 4.5mm dia (0.176 inch, 40kW, copper-clad solid aluminum core):

It might be better to place the access point up where you were planning to place the remote antenna, then run a long data cable to it.

marcos hath wroth:
How low? How lossy? How long? How much money in the budget? Connectors? Numbers please.
That's certainly the best that money can buy. It's also the most expensive and probably overkill for whatever you're doing. CNT-600 costs about $2.60/metre. N-connectors are about $25 each.
May I suggest you look at cheaper cables, such as LMR-400 or LMR-600.

2.4Ghz LMR-400 0.22 dB/m LMR-600 0.15 dB/m N-connectors (crimp) are about $6 each. Crimp tools are available for LMR-400 for about $35. I haven't found a cheap crimp tool for LMR-600. Pre-cut cables are available from many vendors.

In Italy? I'm not familiar with international vendors and can't read the Italian wireless vendors web sites. Sorry.
