Description
This standard straight-bodied SMA Male connector is designed for an ordinary crimp and solder attachment to LMR-240 and equivalent series braided coaxial cables.
- Supports frequencies up to 6 GHz
- Suits all L-240 series coaxial cables
- 6.5 mm (.255″) hex die crimp attachment
- Interface compliant to IEC 61169-15
SMA connectors have become the mainstay of wireless technologies thanks to their modest durability and very compact size. The SMA Male (also referred to as an SMA Plug) connector can be identified by its hex-shaped outer body which rotates to interface by its inner thread.
A gold pin protrudes from the centre of the connector which upon threading together couples with the receptacle on the female connector.
Installation is a simple process. After preparing the cable, the pin is soldered onto the centre conductor and outer body pushed over the top until the pin sits flush. A standard 6.5 mm (0.255″) hex die is used to crimp the ferrule.
The SMA Male Connector for L-240 Coaxial Cable, developed by Powertec, is a vital component in RF connectivity solutions. Designed for reliable performance, this connector supports frequencies up to 6 GHz, making it ideal for a variety of wireless applications. Commonly used in telecommunications, it facilitates secure connections in RF circuits, enabling efficient signal transmission in cellular network enhancements and wireless systems.
The connector features a straight-bodied design with a crimp and solder attachment suitable for LMR-240 cables. Its hex-shaped outer body allows for easy installation and secure mating with corresponding female connectors. The gold-plated brass construction ensures excellent conductivity and durability, while the PTFE insulator enhances signal integrity by maintaining electrical isolation.
Capable of withstanding over 500 mating cycles, this connector is designed for long-term use in demanding environments, with an operating temperature range from -65 °C to 165 °C. It also boasts low contact resistance and high insulation resistance, ensuring minimal signal loss and interference. Meeting ISO 9001 and RoHS certifications, this SMA Male Connector is a reliable choice for integrating and maintaining robust wireless communication networks.
