Does the length of coax pigtails use with multi-couplers influence performance? I noticed Stridsberg sells coax pigtails to be used with their multi-couplers. I know they're easy and cheaper to make.
"Coaxial patch cables in two lengths 4 feet and 6 feet. These cables are made from premium Belden RG-58A/U and Amphenol BNC connectors. All cables are tested on a Network Analyzer for reliable performance up to 1 GHz"
I was surprised that they're using RG-58A/U for up to 1GHZ. I was also surprised the shortest they sell is 4-feet. Is the length important within reason? Would it have any ill effect if you used 1 or 2 feet?
