Critical attributes that the connector fulfills for customers include high reliability RF switching, low signal loss of under 0.3dB, a minimum mating cycle count of 12,000 and return loss VSWR of 1.2:1 at 2GHz. With a frequency range up to 2GHz, the connector is ideal for a variety of applications including mobile phones, two-way radio, military radio and wireless modems.
A wide range of accessories is available for connection to the switching coaxial connector in order to address many different test requirements. A cold pin minimizes RF emissions in unmated scenarios. Further benefits include a low-profile test port of 5.6mm and the ability to address angular and offset misalignment.
