Introduction

Coaxial connectors (RF) are common mechanical devices used in Radio Frequency (RF) applications are available in a broad variety of styles and terminations. This article seeks to explain the RFI97-13 coaxial connector, its intended application field, and the working principle behind it.

RFI97-13 Characteristics

The RFI97-13 is a circular, single contact RF coaxial connector with a very low field strength attenuation yet high DC voltage and frequency rating. The contact size and the insulating material of this connector are both Teflon (PTFE). This connector also features interior diameters of 4.7mm, an exterior diameter of 7.3mm, and is terminated to a 7-16 or BNC type screw.

Recommended Application Field

The RFI97-13 can be employed in a range of applications, such as base station antennas, telecommunications systems, GPS receivers, SATCOM antennas, cable TV systems, medical equipment, and radio networks. This connector has low-insertion loss and is recommended for higher power systems with insertion loss of 0.01dB or less, making it a favorite among engineers.

Working Principle

The RFI97-13 connector is designed to transmit signals with minimal loss and interference. It utilizes a three-piece construction that consists of a pin, a sleeve, and a split body. The pin is made of brass and then machined to accept the center conductor of the cable. The sleeve is a dielectric material with an ID of 4.7 mm to connect the inner and outer conductor, while the split body is used to secure the connector in place. The RF performance of the connector is due to the presence of a foamed PTFE dielectric material in the central core that provides superior electrical performance. The foamed PTFE dielectric also helps reduce the potential for insertion loss. The overall design of the connector minimizes the impedance mismatch, allowing for consistent electrical performance.

Conclusion

The RFI97-13 connector is a popular choice for a wide range of applications due to its low-insertion loss and high frequency rating. Its three-piece construction and the use of foamed PTFE dielectric provide superior electrical performance, allowing for consistent transmission of signals. This connector is an excellent choice for applications such as base station antennas, telecommunications systems, radio networks, and more.
