SMA(R)-A-PP

Coaxial Connectors (RF) - Adapters

The SMA (SubMiniature version A) Coaxial Connectors (RF) - Adapters is a type of coaxial connector used in telecommunications, aerospace, and other electrical applications. It is made of a precision machined brass shell equipped with a stainless steel retaining clip, and a precision diaphragm to ensure a low RF signalloss. It is designed for installations on small areas and is well suited for applications requiring high electrical performance.

SMA (R)-A-PP Application Field and Working Principle

SMA (R)-A-PP is one of the most widely used connectors in telecommunications, RF and aerospace applications. It is designed specifically for radiofrequency signal transmission, and is especially useful in applications requiring miniature connectors. The main application fields of SMA (R)-A-PP connectors include but are not limited to: microwave applications, antenna applications, miniature and low-power RF cables.

The working principle of SMA (R)-A-PP connectors is based on the exact same principles as standard coaxial connectors. It utilizes a center concentric pin and a center conductor that provides excellent signal integrity over a wide frequency range. The center conductor is surrounded by an insulating dielectric material that is usually a high grade Teflon material. This dielectric material helps to reduce any signal losses caused by magnetic fields. The center conductor is then surrounded by a shielding conductor or “braid”, which acts as an electromagnetic shield. This in turn helps reduce any potential interference from other electrical or RF sources.

The SMA (R)-A-PP connector is also extremely versatile when it comes to mounting. It is typically used in applications that require the connector to be mounted in a variety of positions. It is one of the few types of connectors that can be mounted in straight, right angle, or 90 degrees configurations. This makes it ideal for use in many applications, such as cell phones, digital video transmitters, and data applications.

SMA (R)-A-PP connectors are highly reliable, and are designed to reduce the potential for RF signal distortion. They are also extremely durable and are resistant to water and other environmental contaminants. In addition, they are highly resistance to thermal and EMI interference. Their reduced signal loss makes them ideal for applications requiring high performance and minimal signal loss in a miniature package.
