MaxForm cable is a hand-formable alternative to semi-rigid cable. With its 100% shield coverage, it provides equivalent performance to MIL-C-17 semi- rigid, but can be formed by hand without the use of bending equipment. Cable assemblies can be made to approximate overall length and bent to fit when installing into equipment. MaxForm cable can be used with connectors designed for MIL-C-17 semi-rigid cable, with no change in assembly procedures.
