142-0711-846

Coaxial Connectors (RF) have been around since about the 1920s and have been used in a wide range of applications. The 142-0711-846 is a type of coaxial connector commonly used for transmitting radio waves or radio frequencies through cables, and is used in many RF based applications. It is a 50 Ohm impedance connector.

The components of the 142-0711-846, also known as BNC Connectors, include: two connected outer shells, an internal metal center pin, and two retaining nuts. The shells are made of a conductive metal, such as brass or stainless steel, which serves to shield the electromagnetic field and to transfer the electrical signal from one cable to another. The internal metal pin is what the electrical signal goes through, and it is connected to the shells by two retaining nuts. The retaining nuts act as screws to firmly attach the shells to the pin.

This type of connector is used in many radio, wired, and wireless networking applications. They are used to link two cables together, or to link a cable to some other device, such as an antenna. They are often used in the broadcasting industry, in medical equipment, in telecommunications, and in aircraft. The 142-0711-846 is particularly useful for transmitting very high frequency signals with minimal signal loss.

The working principle of the 142-0711-846 connector is based on the principle of impedance matching. That is, the impedance of the connector and the impedance of the line should be matched in order for the signal to pass through without any loss of power. The two shells of the connector act as a Faraday Cage, which means that any electromagnetic radiation will be blocked by the connector. This means that it is ideal for applications where interference needs to be minimized. The center pin also acts as a conductor and transfers the electrical signal from one cable to another.

The 142-0711-846 is versatile, cost-effective, and easy to install, making it a valuable component for a variety of RF based applications. Its high performance, durable construction, and reliable connection make them ideal for transmitting high frequency signals, reducing loss and noise. The 142-0711-846 connector is a popular choice for professionals in the RF industry and is surprisingly inexpensive for its level of quality and performance.
