112118

Coaxial Connectors (RF)

A 112118 connector is a coaxial RF connector, also known as a “reverse sex” connector. It is one of the most popular RF connectors, widely used for many consumer and commercial applications. The 112118 connector is usually used in applications that require high frequency signals or low loss of power due to its high bandwidth and end-to-end conductivity.

The 112118 connector is usually designed with a 3.5mm inner diameter and a 4.5mm outer diameter. It features a long metal post that extends from the center conductor and is surrounded by a ground contact terminating into the outer insulation. The components are made of either brass or stainless steel and have gold-plated electrical contacts to provide a low-resistance connection. The most commonly used pins are 2 and 4.

The 112118 connector is designed for use in high power applications such as cellular phones, broadcast systems, and GPS systems. It is also suitable for use in low power applications such as analog and digital signal processing. This type of connector is compatible with many types of communications cables, including triaxial copper, Para-type, and RG-type.

The 112118 connector has two primary working principles. The first is the direct connection of signals between two units. This is achieved by connecting the center conductor to the device input and the outer ground contact to the device output. The second principle is the coupling of signals between two units, which is accomplished by connecting the center conductor and the outer ground contact between two devices via a common conductor. In both cases, the signal traverses from the connector\'s female contact (which is connected to the unit\'s input) to the male contact (which is connected to the unit\'s output).

The 112118 connector has many advantages over other RF connectors. It offers a minimal insertion loss, which translates to a smaller drop in power as the signal travels through. It is also designed to give a secure connection, so there is less chance for signal degradation due to loose connections. This type of connector is also relatively inexpensive and easy to install or connect.

The 112118 connector is an extremely versatile and reliable RF connector, making it an ideal choice for many applications. With its high bandwidth, low insertion loss, and minimal signal degradation, the 112118 connector is ideal for use in high-frequency applications such as cellular phones, broadcast systems, and GPS systems. It is also suitable for low power applications such as analog and digital signal processing.
