Intellitron 450 ohm 2-18 AWG Solid Copper-Clad Steel Ladder Line
Intellitron: Expertly Built, Economically Priced
Maximize the performance of your high-impedance antenna systems with the Intellitron 450 Ohm Ladder Line. Specifically engineered for amateur radio operators who prioritize low-loss signal transfer, this 2-conductor, 18 AWG balanced transmission line is the superior alternative to standard coaxial cable for multi-band dipoles, doublets, and G5RV antennas. By utilizing a balanced feed system, you can operate across multiple bands with significantly less signal attenuation, ensuring more of your power reaches the wire.
Built for Efficiency and Durability
The Intellitron ladder line is constructed using solid copper-clad steel (CCS) conductors. This design provides the perfect balance of high electrical conductivity and extreme tensile strength, allowing for long, self-supporting spans without the risk of stretching or snapping under wind or ice loads. The high-quality polyethylene insulation is UV-resistant and features a "windowed" design to maintain consistent 450-ohm impedance while reducing weight and wind surface area.
Whether you are building a permanent home station or a high-performance portable array, this ladder line delivers the low-loss characteristics required for efficient operation on non-resonant frequencies. Because it handles high SWR much more gracefully than coax, it is the ideal choice for use with a balanced antenna tuner. To suit any installation size, it is available in a wide variety of pre-cut lengths, including 25, 50, 75, 100, 125, 150, and 200 feet.
