142-1701-616

Coaxial connectors, often referred to as RF connectors, are used in a variety of applications. They are designed to provide electrical continuity and a secure connection between two electrical components, such as a radio antenna and amplifier, or between two pieces of coaxial cable. The 142-1701-616 is one of the most popular types of coaxial connectors. It is a robust, medium-sized connector that is well-suited for a wide range of applications in both consumer and professional applications.

The 142-1701-616 follows a standard 50 ohm impedance, coupled with an SMA Female connector type. It is frequency rated up to 12.4GHz, making it suitable for a broad range of applications. It is also included in waterproof versions and is well-suited for both indoor and outdoor applications.

The working principle of the 142-1701-616 is similar to other types of coaxial connectors. It consists of a connector body, which is typically metal (such as brass or stainless steel) or plastic, and two connectors, an inner and an outer conductor. The inner conductor is typically a center wire or pin surrounded by an insulator, and the outer conductor is typically a hollow cylinder that houses the inner conductor. The outer conductor also serves as a ground plane and helps keep the electrical connection stable.

In order to maintain electrical continuity between the connector body and the connectors, an insulative O-ring is typically used between the transmit signal lines and the connector body. When the connector is in use, the center conductor is electrically connected to the center pin while the outer conductor is connected to the ground plane. This effectively keeps the signal path isolated from the surrounding environment, thus preventing interference.

The 142-1701-616 is a widely-used RF connector, and is suitable for a variety of applications including audio, video, wireless, and broadcast. It is also used in a range of consumer applications such as cordless phones, TV remotes, Wi-Fi systems, and satellite dishes. In addition, the 142-1701-616 has been used in professional applications such as in laboratories, communications, and military equipment.

In summary, the 142-1701-616 is a robust and versatile coaxial connector that makes it well-suited for a variety of applications in both consumer and professional markets. It is frequency rated up to 12.4GHz and is included in waterproof versions. The working principle of the 142-1701-616 consists of a connector body, two connectors, and an insulative O-ring, which helps to keep the signal path isolated from the outside environment.
