Common RF connectors
The basic structure of the coaxial connector includes: the center conductor; the dielectric material outside the conductor, or the insulator; the outermost is the external contact, which acts like a coaxial cable outer shield, that is, the transmission signal , As a shield or circuit grounding element. Coaxial connectors are divided into: SMA, SMB, BNC, TNC, SMC, N type, BMA and so on.
1. Common knowledge of RF coaxial connectors
(1) Male: male joints, threads, including, which is the needle, sometimes called "J" mouth.
(2) Female: female connector, thread outside, which is a hole, sometimes called "K" mouth.
(3) RP: Reverse Polarity means that the head and the inside of the needle is the opposite.
(4) Bulkhead: is the lockable screw on the board of the connector with the Secretary, the screw and the retaining wall, generally used for the board.
(5) PCB: is a foot, you can weld the connector on the board.
(6) Panel: is a screw hole, screw can be locked on the board connector.
2. Describe the common elements of the RF connector connector
(1) Connector type: SMA, SMB, BNC, TNC, SMC, N type, BMA and so on
(2) Characteristic impedance: 50 ohm mark 50 or 50 is not marked, 75 ohm mark 75
(3) contact key way: male, female
(4) Shell form: Straight: Not marked; Curved: W
(5) Mounting Type: Flange: F Nut: Y Solder: H
(6) wiring type: adapter cable type, diameter diameter requirements
(7) attenuation: corresponding to different frequency bands of the RF signal through the resulting signal strength attenuation
(8) Thread type: external thread, internal thread
Note: Usually the equipment side of the connector are female thread, the cable side of the male thread.
