Coaxial Connectors (RF)

A coaxial connector is an electrical connector commonly found in radio frequency (RF) systems. It usually refers to a connector connected to a piece of coaxial cable consisting of an outer conductor, or shield, and a central conductor that carries the RF signals. The 142-0407-016 connector is a type of coaxial connector used in high-frequency transmission applications.

A coaxial connector is usually a two-piece device. The first part is the mating surface with good electrical contact characteristics and the second part is a means of mechanical attachment to the cable. The connector consists of two parts: the connector body and the contact pins. The contact pins are placed in the body and held in place by a sealing member. The sealing member provides a long-term watertight connection that prevents cable damages which may occur due to humidity or other environmental conditions. The 142-407-016 connector has great electrical contact characteristics and provides a secure connection that doesn\'t easily undergo damage or disconnection.

The 142-0407-016 connector is typically used in applications where large frequency bandwidths are required, such as high-frequency linearized systems. It has a very low impedance for a wide frequency range, and its small size makes it ideal for use in tight spaces. It also offers excellent repeatability and high current rating. The 142-0407-016 has a very rugged construction, making it suitable for rugged applications. Additionally, the connector is rated to withstand vibration, shock, and extreme temperatures.

The 142-0407-016\'s working principle is based on the fact that it has two surfaces that mate together. When the female component is mated to the connector body, the contact pins are compressed due to the tension in the cable and sealant material. The pins make an electrical connection with the opposing contact surfaces. This ensures a secure and reliable connection that does not move or become easily disconnected over time.

The 142-0407-016 is an ideal connector choice for applications where wide bandwidths, low impedance, and small size are required. It provides a secure connection that can withstand the test of time and extreme environmental conditions. It also offers excellent electrical contact characteristics and is great for use in a variety of applications.
