1060989-1

Introduction

Coaxial Connectors (RF) are one of the most commonly used RF connectors to connect electric and electronic devices. They usually consist of an inner metal conductor encased in a dielectric material, which is then wrapped in a metallic shield. The 1060989-1 is one of the smallest two pole coaxial connectors. It has a remarkable combination of low profile height, low insertion loss and secure locking. This type of connector is suitable for applications in the audio, broadband, and telecom/data industries.

Application Field and Working Principle
The 1060989-1 is typically used for semi-rigid and flexible cables in telecom, broadband, and multimedia applications. It is suitable for both digital and analog signals, as well as for high data rates in transmission. The main advantage of this connector is its small size and low profile height, which allows it to be placed in small and confined spaces.

The 1060989-1 is based on the MIL-STD-1553 standard for two-pole connectors. It is composed of a male connector and a female connector, that have several parts in common. The inner metal conductor is composed of an aluminum or copper tube that is insulated with a PTFE insulation material. This conductor is surrounded by a dielectric material, such as polyethylene, which is then covered by an insulated shield made of brass or copper.

The locking mechanism of the 1060989-1 uses two opposing pins that are forced onto the corresponding sockets in the connector. The pins are made of stainless steel and the sockets are made of brass. The contact pressure between the two is generated by a screw in the female side. This provides a secure locking which ensures a reliable connection. The insertion loss of the 1060989-1 is relatively low, allowing signals to pass through without being distorted.

Conclusion
The 1060989-1 is a two-pole coaxial connector that is suitable for telecom, broadband, and multimedia applications. It has a small size and low profile height, making it particularly useful in confined spaces. It has a secure locking mechanism with an acceptable insertion loss. It is based on the MIL-STD-1553 standard, and the parts are made of aluminum, copper, stainless steel, and brass.
