L-195 was designed as a high performance drop-in replacement for RG-58, RG-122, RG-303, and RG-142. The double shielded outer conductor provides excellent RF shielding exceeding 90 dB, and its PE jacket provides for a service life
in excess of 20 years.L-195 cables are occasionally referred to as LMR-195, although the LMR prefix refers to the international trademark of Times Microwave
. Each manufacturer instead uses their own prefix to reference a similar variation, such as CNT -195 (for Commscope), PTL-195 (for Powertec ).![LMR-195 coaxial cable](/sites/default/files/styles/scale_square/public/2024-02/LMR-195-coaxial-cable-layers.png.webp?itok=9fPSesKK)
