Inmarsat Beam Passive SMA/TNC Cable Kit - 50m/164ft (ISD941)

The Inmarsat Beam Passive SMA/TNC Cable Kit - 50m/164ft (ISD941) is a professional-grade product designed for reliable performance in business-critical and industrial environments. Built to meet commercial standards, it is suitable for daily operational use.

The ISD941 represents the maximum standard length for Beam's passive cable series, offering a 50-metre (164 feet) run for extensive fixed-site satellite installations. This kit is specifically designed for large-scale industrial complexes and remote infrastructure where the distance between the docking station and the antenna is significant. To ensure signal integrity across the full 50-metre span without active amplification, the kit utilises high-gauge, low-loss cabling and specialised adaptor leads.

Key Product Features

• Maximum Standard Passive Range: Provides 50m of cabling, the longest standard configuration for passive Inmarsat systems.
• Integrated Fly Lead Adaptor: Includes a 50cm TNC(f) to SMA(m) adaptor to allow the heavy-duty main cable to connect safely to the docking station.
• Dual Cable Configuration: The kit contains both a 50m Inmarsat satellite antenna cable and a 50m GPS antenna cable.
• High-Performance Gauge: Features a thick 14.99mm (0.59 inch) satellite cable diameter and a 7.62mm GPS cable to minimise signal loss.
• Industrial Build: Factory-terminated with high-quality TNC and SMA connectors for a secure, moisture-resistant connection.

What’s Included

• 1x 49.5m (162.4ft) Passive Inmarsat Satellite Cable (TNC-m to TNC-m)
• 1x 50m (164ft) Passive GPS Cable (SMA-m to SMA-m)
• 1x 50cm (1.64ft) Fly Lead Adaptor (TNC-f to SMA-m)

Installation & Usage

The ISD941 kit is intended for expert professional installation where structural constraints require a maximum-length passive cable run.

• Utilise the provided 50cm fly lead adaptor to connect the main satellite cable to your docking station; this prevents mechanical stress and potential damage to the terminal's SMA port.
• Route the cables through industrial-grade conduits or trays, ensuring you respect the 38mm single bend radius for the main satellite line.
• Due to the significant weight (approx. 30 kg / 66.14 lbs), ensure all mounting hardware and cable supports are rated for industrial loads.
• This cable is strictly for fixed, stationary land installations and must not be used in maritime or vehicular applications.

Usage Tip: For specialised projects, passive cable kits can be specially ordered in lengths up to 50m. Please allow 4-6 weeks for these configurations.
