A jumper coaxial cable assembly includes a jumper coaxial cable and at
least one solder-type connector secured thereto. The cable may include an
outer conductor, which, in turn, includes aluminum with a tin layer
thereon. The tin layer permits an aluminum outer conductor to be used,
yet facilitates soldering of the solder-type connector onto the outer
conductor. The tin layer may be a tin alloy, such as a tin/lead alloy,
for example. The outer conductor may have a continuous, non-braided,
tubular shape, and the tin layer may extend continuously along an entire
length of the outer conductor. The tin layer may be readily formed by tin
plating during manufacturing of the jumper coaxial cable. The jumper
coaxial cable assembly may be joined to a main coaxial cable and/or to
electronic equipment.
