Specifications for "N" Connectors

_____________________________

N Series connectors are medium sized, and weatherproof. The coupling method utilizes a screw system designed for use at frequencies up to microwave. These connectors are particularly useful where precision performance is necessary such as in test equipment, satellite communications, MATV, computer LAN systems, and other high-tech electronic equipment. Because of the quality manufacturing tolerances these connectors ensure excellent performance throughout 0-18GHz.

Jacks
Two cable jacks and one panel jack style are available as standard items. Other types are available as special order items. The cable jacks utilize the clamp/solder method of assembly and the panel jack will facilitate any cable size by soldering the center conductor to the connector’s solder-cup contact.

V-Bite ® PC Edge Mount
The V-Bite ® is an industry award winning design PCB connector with all the advantages a designer could want. It edge mounts to the board which offers the lowest profile and utilizes very little PCB real estate. It lends itself to surface mount and through-hole soldering techniques. There are versions for IR and convection reflow soldering. Because the connector locks into place both above and below the PCB it disperses rotational torque relief to the board and not the solder points. The V-Bite ® design offers the lowest VSWR ratings due to the straight through-put contact design. No right angles for reflection. Available in 50 and 75 ohm, threaded and non-threaded. Other options for PCB thickness available. Other interfaces available. See “F”, BNC Twin, TNC and N sections.
