VN10-2020 Connectors, Interconnects

Coaxial connectors (RF) are a type of connector composed of an inner conductor surrounded by an insulating dielectric and an outer cylindrical shield of metal enclosing the dielectric and contacting the inner conductor at one end. The VN10-2020 is a RF coaxial connector designed to be used in radio frequency (RF) applications up to 6 GHz. It features a low-profile design, high-frequency performance, and a snap-on mating feature. It is suitable for use in a wide variety of applications, from amateur radio to commercial and military applications.

The VN10-2020 connector is a 50 ohm SMA-type coaxial connector with a threaded coupling interface. It is constructed of a machined brass body with gold-plated contacts and stainless steel nuts and washers. The standard Version of the VN10-2020 has a frequency range of DC-6GHz and a VSWR of 1.25, making it suitable for use in most common radio frequency applications. The connector is available in either PCB mount or free-hanging styles, making it suitable for a wide variety of applications.

The working principle of the VN10-2020 coaxial connector is relatively simple. The connector mates two impedances, typically 50 ohms, to each other with a physical contact (for a PCB mount version), no adhesive is required. The connector’s threaded coupling interface makes it relatively easy to mate and demate without the need for tools. The mating cycle consists of twisting the connector onto its mating part and the strength of the connection is determined by the amount of torque applied to the threads. The VN10-2020 also features a snap-on mating feature which enables it to be easily mated and demated with one hand. Additionally, the stainless steel nuts and washers ensure a secure connection and ensure that the connector is held in place.

The VN10-2020 connector is designed to provide high-frequency performance in radio frequency applications up to 6 GHz. It features a low-profile design that allows it to be used in space-restricted applications and its snap-on mating makes it easy to install and remove without the use of tools. Additionally, the stainless steel nuts and washers ensure a secure connection and hold the connector securely in place. The VN10-2020 is suitable for use in a wide range of applications, from amateur radio to commercial and military applications.
