where to buy 2.4ghz antenna cable

i was looking for a low loss antenna cable for a 2.4Ghz wireless
project.

i found that the best is the "CNT 600" (0,141 dB @ meter at 2.4 GHz)

Can you suggest me a good internet shop to buy it?

thanx

That cable is big (15mm OD) and heavy (~20Kg/100m), so you should
probably look for someplace nearby.

Are you sure you want to go with this? The inner conductor is 4.5mm dia
(0.176 inch, 40kW, copper-clad solid aluminum core):

It might be better to place the access point up where you were planning to
place the remote antenna, then run a long data cable to it.

How low? How lossy? How long? How much money in the budget?
Connectors? Numbers please.

That's certainly the best that money can buy. It's also the most
expensive and probably overkill for whatever you're doing. CNT-600
costs about $2.60/metre. N-connectors are about $25 each.

May I suggest you look at cheaper cables, such as LMR-400 or LMR-600.

@ 2.4Ghz
LMR-400 0.22 dB/m
LMR-600 0.15 dB/m
N-connectors (crimp) are about $6 each. Crimp tools are available for
LMR-400 for about $35. I haven't found a cheap crimp tool for
LMR-600. Pre-cut cables are available from many vendors.

In Italy? I'm not familiar with international vendors and can't read
the Italian wireless vendors web sites. Sorry.
