G174LL Waterproof Universal Fakra Z-Code Female to Female Car Coaxial Extension Cable – Reliable RF Signal Transmission for Modern Automotive Systems This high-performance coaxial extension cable is engineered specifically for automotive applications requiring robust, low-loss signal integrity in demanding environments. Designed with a Fakra female-to-female configuration and Z-code compatibility, it ensures seamless integration across various OEM and aftermarket vehicle systems. Whether you're installing GPS modules, telematics units, or advanced camera systems, this RG174LL-based solution delivers consistent performance from DC up to 6 GHz while maintaining IP67 waterproof protection when properly mated. Key Features: Engineered for durability and precision, the G174LL features a 50-ohm impedance matched to industry standards for optimal RF transmission. Its lightweight yet resilient RG174LL inner conductor minimizes signal attenuation over extended runs—ideal for connecting infotainment systems, rearview cameras, and wireless communication devices within modern vehicles. The full 360° shielding prevents electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI), ensuring clean data transfer even in electrically noisy engine compartments. With more than 100 mating cycles, the secure clip-lock mechanism guarantees long-term reliability without degradation in connection quality. The cable’s universal Z-code design supports multiple Fakra system configurations, making it an ideal choice for technicians working on diverse platforms including BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen, and other European and global automotive brands. Custom lengths are available to suit specific installation requirements, reducing excess cable clutter and improving routing efficiency inside tight vehicle spaces. Each connector is precision-molded to ensure perfect alignment and mechanical stability under vibration and thermal stress conditions commonly found in automotive environments. Ideal for use in car audio setups, ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems), GMSL/FPD-Link video interfaces, and mobile broadband antennas, this extension cable bridges critical gaps between components where space constraints or routing challenges exist. It’s especially valuable in retrofit installations where factory-installed cables may be too short or incompatible with upgraded hardware. By leveraging proven materials like tinned copper braid shielding and UV-resistant outer jackets, the G174LL maintains peak functionality in extreme temperatures ranging from -40°C to +85°C. Users consistently report enhanced signal clarity and reduced dropouts after replacing older or poorly shielded cables. Many appreciate how easily the locking mechanism simplifies installation compared to traditional screw-type connectors, particularly in hard-to-reach areas such as trunk lids or under dashboards. For professionals seeking a dependable alternative to generic adapters, this product offers superior build quality, certified compliance with automotive-grade standards, and excellent value for both repair shops and DIY enthusiasts alike. Common Questions: Is this cable suitable for outdoor vehicle installations? Yes—it has an IP67 rating, meaning it’s dust-tight and can withstand temporary immersion in water up to 1 meter deep for 30 minutes. Can I use it with non-Fakra systems? No—it’s designed exclusively for Z-coded Fakra connections, which are standard in many modern European vehicles. How does it compare to cheaper alternatives? Unlike generic cables that degrade quickly or introduce noise, this one uses premium-grade RG174LL material and fully shielded construction for stable, high-frequency performance over time. What makes it different from standard RG174? The LL suffix indicates a low-loss variant optimized for higher frequencies and better flexibility, making it ideal for automotive applications where minimal signal loss matters most.
