Canare L2.5CHD 100ft Ultra Slim HD-SDI BNC Coaxial RF Cable

SKU CH-8HX5-VM8T9

A 100 ft ultra-slim HD-SDI coaxial cable with 22 AWG solid copper conductor, 75 Ohm impedance, 94% braid shielding, and BNC connectors tested to SMPTE 259M, 292M, and 424M standards

  • Crystal-clear HD-SDI video with precise 75Ohm impedance
  • Dual copper braid shield at 94%+ coverage for interference protection
  • Ultra-slim 0.228" (5.79mm) diameter routes easily in tight spaces
  • Secure Male BNC connectors ensure stable equipment connections
  • 100% sweep tested to SMPTE 259M, 292M and 424M standards

Professional HD-SDI Video Cable

The Canare L2.5CHD is a 100ft ultra-slim coaxial cable built for professional HD-SDI video transmission. It serves broadcast engineers, mobile production crews and installers upgrading HDTV or broadband facilities who need reliable signal integrity over long runs.

Upgrade From Standard SDI Cables

This cable replaces thinner or lower-spec SDI lines that cannot meet SMPTE 259M, 292M or 424M standards at distance. The jump is worth it when existing runs show bit errors or connector failure on 3G-SDI signals, or when routing space demands a 5.79mm outer diameter without losing shielding performance.

Sustained Load Behaviour

A solid 22 AWG bare copper centre conductor and foam PE dielectric maintain a precise 75Ohm impedance across the full length. Dual copper braid shielding at 94% coverage rejects interference during continuous 424M bit-rate transmission. Every metre is 100% sweep tested to verify consistent attenuation and return loss under sustained broadcast loads.

Questions about this item

What outer diameter does the 0.228" (5.79mm) ultra-slim cable need to clear for routing?

The cable measures 0.228 inches or 5.79 millimetres overall, so allow at least that much clearance through conduits, raceways or cable trays.

How do I attach the BNC connectors to the #22 bare copper conductor and double braid without damaging the foam PE dielectric?

Strip the jacket and outer braid, fold the inner braid back, trim the dielectric flush with the centre conductor, then crimp or solder the BNC pin onto the solid #22 copper core.

When should I replace the cable if the 94%+ dual copper braid shielding degrades from repeated flexing?

Replace it when sweep-test results show attenuation rising above SMPTE 259M, 292M or 424M limits, or if intermittent signal loss appears during movement.
