Introduction
RF Coax Connectors
The Tyco Electronics
RF Coaxial catalog
combines the best products
from industry leading brand
names like M/A-COM and
AMP. We have integrated
these into one cohesive set
of RF products focused
specifically on wireless,
wireline carrier, and enter-
prise networking sectors of
the world telecom equip-
ment market.
Tyco Electronic’s broadest
selection of RF connectors
and coaxial cable assem-
blies provides you with a
solution for every intercon-
nection requirement.
Type N and 7/16 connec-
tors are used where high
power and rugged reliability
are required, typically as
antenna feeds, filter/
combiner I/O’s, and power
amplifier outputs. SMA,
SMB, and TNC connectors
are the primary cable inter-
face for inner cabinet rout-
ing and are available in
panel mount, board mount,
and cable terminations.
Subminiature connectors
such as MCX, SMP, DIN,
and BlindMate provide
panel to board and back-
plane connections. Finally,
our micro miniature SSMT,
and MMCX series provide
excellent board to board
and card edge to board
solutions.
All of these interfaces are
supported with cable termi-
nating tools and between
series adapters to meet all
your requirements for trou-
ble free terminations at the
lowest applied cost. The
appendices hold a wealth
of information including a
Theory and Application
tutorial, RG/U cable specifi-
cation tables, Application
notes on White Bronze plat-
ing and intermodulation
distortion.
Whether you need rugged
external RF power cables,
panel mount, board to
board, blindmate, or DIN,
Tyco Electronics has the
connection.
How to Use This Catalog
Based on the communica-
tions gear that you are
designing:
■ Wireless Basestations
■ Carrier Rack Equipment
■ Chassis Set Top Box
■ NIC Card
Typical equipment drawings
on pages 306-309 guide
you to the interconnect
section(s) in this catalog.
Selection guides will direct
you to products based
on performance and
mechanical requirements
such as impedance, VSWR,
max. frequency, power
handling, etc.
There are other guides
to help you find the right
connection: A table of
contents listed by interface
type, a complete connector
type selector describes
each interface with typical
applications, and a mini-
selection guide shows
key parameters to quickly
pinpoint the right connector
type.

Restriction on the use of Hazardous Substances
(RoHS)
At Tyco Electronics, we’re ready to support your RoHS require-
ments. We’ve assessed more than 1.5 million end items/com-
ponents for RoHS compliance, and issued new part numbers
where any change was required to eliminate the restricted
materials. Part numbers in this catalog are identified as:
RoHS Compliant — Part numbers in this catalog are RoHS
Compliant, unless marked otherwise. These products comply
with European Union Directive 2002/95/EC as amended 1
January 2006 that restricts the use of lead, mercury, cadmium,
hexavalent chromium, PBB, and PBDE in certain electrical and
electronic products sold into the EU as of 1 July 2006.
NOTE: For purposes of this Catalog, included within the defini-
tion of RoHS Compliant are products that are clearly “Out of
Scope” of the RoHS Directive such as hand tools and other
non-electrical accessories.
Non-RoHS Compliant — These part numbers are identified
with a “” symbol. These products do not comply with the
material restrictions of the European Union Directive
2002/95/EC.
NOTE: Information regarding RoHS compliance is provided
based on reasonable inquiry of our suppliers and represents
our current actual knowledge based on the information provided
by our suppliers. This information is subject to change. For lat-
est compliance status, refer to our website referenced at right.
