031-6171

Coaxial Connectors (RF)

Coaxial connectors are one of the most commonly used types of connectors in electronic applications such as radio, television, and satellite signal based industries. In particular, the 031-6171 coaxial connector is designed to provide superior performance in applications that require accurate and reliable connections. It is a versatile connector system used in both commercial and military settings.

Application Field and Working Principle

The 031-6171 coaxial connector is used in a variety of applications, including transmission and reception of radio and television signals, digital and analog satellite transmissions, consumer electronics, and wireless communication expansion. It is a type of RF (Radio Frequency) connector that utilizes an outer shield which serves as the ground system. One of the advantages of the 031-6171 is that it provides secure shielding against electromagnetic interference or radio interference.

The 031-6171 coaxial connector features two crimp-type contact points, a male center conductor and a female outer conductor, which are held together with a threaded coupling (nut). The contact points are made of brass, with the male center conductor typically being plated in nickel and the female outer conductor typically being plated in nickel or gold. As with other coaxial connectors, the connection of the two contact points is completed when the center conductor is compressed (crimped), secured, and then tightened using the threaded coupling nut.

The coupling nut, in addition to securing the center conductor to the outer conductor, also serves the purpose of coaxial alignment. Specifically, the mechanisms of the 031-6171 coaxial connector allow for very precise radial alignment between the two contact points. This ensures that there is no gap between the contact points where interference or signal loss could occur, resulting in improved performance in demanding applications.

The 031-6171 is especially useful in applications that require robust connectors that can withstand vibration, shock, and extreme temperatures. The threaded coupling nut also provides for a secure and reliable connection between the two contact points, as is required in tough and demanding environments.

Overall, the 031-6171 coaxial connector can provide superior performance and reliable connections in a diverse range of applications. Its features and construction allow it to handle vibration, shock, and temperature variations with ease, and its precise coaxial alignment helps to reduce signal loss and interference. As such, the 031-6171 is a versatile connector that is well suited to a broad range of applications.
