    LMR-400 cable has extremely low loss. For the short lengths of these cables, the total loss is dominated by the connector loss, and can be approximated as 0.5dB for all 4 variants.

    You can find charts online for LMR400 loss by googling "LMR400 loss chart".

     

    There are also loss calculators online, here is on by Times Microwave which is a major supplier of such cables.  http://www.timesmicrowave.com/cgi-bin/calculate.pl

    Usually 0.25dB is OK for connectors from reputable sources.
