A key series introduction is the high-performance and rugged-contact GRF1-J and GRF1-P micro-miniature RF connectors and cable assemblies.
These devices can handle signals of up to 5.31GHz/10.7-Gbit/s at 152mm.
SMP cable-mount jacks and PCB-mount plugs have also been introduced, and are ideal for space-limited applications that require high-frequency solutions.
The devices feature a push-on snap-together coupling to provide secure and reliable connection, as well as offering gold-plated centre contacts and a PTFE insulator.
A third example is the IJ5C5 50-Ohm series of high-isolation RF cable assemblies, which use a 4.0mm-pitch IJ5C connector housed in black shielded thermoplastic housings and feature a positive latching system for secure connection.
They consist of a high-performance 26 AWG shielded cable with a FEP outer jacket.
The expanded Samtec range of connectors is available now from RS in the EMEA and Asia Pacific regions.
