638818-1 Connectors, Interconnects

Coaxial Connectors (RF) are a type of electrical interface designed to carry and transfer a high-frequency signal, usually in the radio frequency (RF) spectrum. These connectors are designed to be able to transfer signals with minimal signal loss, making them an ideal choice for many radio frequency applications.

Among the many types of RF connectors, Type 638818-1 is a widely used coaxial connector, most commonly used in military and industrial systems. It is a circular connector with a threaded coupling nut, making it suitable for high vibration environments. It offers excellent electrical performance and high power ratings. The Type 638818-1 connector has two parts - the receptacle and the plug.

The 638818-1 receptacle has a threaded coupling nut that couples the plug to the main body, providing a secure, reliable connection in high-vibration applications. A standard gasket is usually present between the receptacle and the plug, protecting the connector from the elements. The receptacle also features a slot in the body that allows for the easy insertion of the plug, ensuring that the connection process is not hindered in any way.

The 638818-1 plug consists of a body with a central pin and a U-shaped tail-piece (Figure 1). The two parts of the plug fit together, forming an inner and outer shell. The pin and tail-piece are designed to engage the receptacle, ensuring a reliable connection. The plug also features a threaded coupling nut that is used to secure the plug to the receptacle.

The working principle of the Type 638818-1 connector is simple. When the plug is inserted into the receptacle, the two parts form a hermetic seal around the pin, providing a secure connection without the need for any sealants. The pin then transmits electrical signals from the device to the receptacle, while the U-shape tail-piece helps to provide a secure mechanical connection between the two parts. This ensures that the signal transfer is reliable, with no disruption.

The Type 638818-1 coaxial connector is suitable for a wide range of applications. It is commonly used in military, automotive, aerospace, communication, data transfer and industrial applications. It offers excellent electrical properties, making it suitable for applications that require higher power handling capability. In addition, its reliability makes it an ideal choice for high-vibration applications.

Overall, the Type 638818-1 connector is a reliable, versatile, and durable electrical interface, which can be used in a variety of applications. Its hermetic sealed design allows for reliable signal transfer and excellent electrical performance, making it an ideal choice for many radio frequency applications.
