Times Microwave Systems Introduces New LMR Tool Kit

New Hard Case Tool Kit Includes All Tools Required for LMR-195, LMR-200 and LMR-240 Installations in One Accessible Location

WALLINGFORD, CT — Times Microwave Systems^®, the preeminent brand in innovative RF and microwave interconnect assemblies, cables, and connectors, today introduced its new LMR® tool kit. The new hard case tool kit includes all of the tools required for LMR®-195, LMR®-200, and LMR®-240 coaxial cable installations.

The new LMR tool kit includes:
• CT-240/200/195/100: Crimp tool for LMR-240, LMR-200, LMR-195, and LMR-100 X series                 connectors
• CST-195/200: Prep tool for LMR-195 and LMR-200 X series connectors
• CST-240A: Prep tool for LMR-240
• CCT-03: Cable cutting tool for LMR-100 through LMR-600

The Times Microwave LMR® system offers a complete line of highly flexible, rugged, low loss cables with the fastest, easiest connector installation available. LMR cables provide superior performance compared to RG cables of similar size. They provide significantly better attenuation, shielding effectiveness and UV resistance. LMR is a complete solution that prioritizes simplicity, ruggedness, and weatherability and its proven construction provides a reliable and durable solution that will stand the test of time.

LMR cables also come with a complete assortment of connectors, including X-series non-solder EZ connectors that feature common interface types and do not require braid trimming. With center pin contacts made from gold- or silver-plated beryllium-copper, EZ connectors are the preferred choice for quick and reliable field installations. Times Microwave Systems also offers cable prep and connector installation tools for the complete line of LMR cable constructions.

“Identifying the proper tools for a coaxial cable installation and making sure they are all stored in a way that is quickly accessible has been a timeless challenge—especially when working at a remote job site,” said Kevin Moyher at Times Microwave. “With the new LMR tool kit for LMR-195, LMR-200 and LMR-240 coaxial cable assemblies, all it takes is a quick flip of the lid to make sure you have everything required.”
