SMA PCB Edge Mount Connector | 761851

With a rated range of DC to 18 GHz, it keeps one consistent interface across your lowest and highest operating bands. The result is simpler inventory planning and predictable performance wherever frequency planning changes between projects.

Precision machining holds VSWR to 1.3:1, protecting signal integrity and minimizing reflected power across the band. Tight matching also improves cascaded accuracy when several components are used together in the same RF chain.

A precision edge launch / PCB interface holds position and grounding, so the connector stays stable even with frequent connections. Accurate mounting features simplify board layout and ensure the interface sits square to the panel or PCB edge.

Built to the SMA standard, the mating faces and coupling threads are held to tight tolerances for dependable intermateability. Precise alignment prevents cross-threading and off-center contact, preserving both performance and connector life.

Materials are selected for long-term stability: 1U’ Gold plated Brass, gold-plated beryllium copper contacts, giving consistent electrical and mechanical performance. Gold plating lowers contact resistance and resists wear, while the body material provides strength and grounding.

With 500 cycles minimum and a -65 to +150 C range, electrical behavior stays consistent through years of connect and disconnect. The wide thermal range also accommodates extremes found in outdoor and aerospace installations.
