1.85 mm (V) DC to 67 GHz connectors from Southwest Microwave include field-replaceable 2- and 4-hole Flange-mount and standard or metric Thread-in Connectors, Direct-solder Cable Connectors, clamp-on End Launch Connectors, and the new Solderless Vertical Launch Connector.
Southwest Microwave’s SuperSMA is a high performance field service SMA connector. SuperSMA utilizes the basic PTFE dielectric interface (true SMA) and features low VSWR mode free through 27 GHz and less than -100 dB RF leakage. The thick outer conductor wall provides great durability to assure reliability in repeat mating, enhancing component performance. The SuperSMA interface is in accordance with MIL-STD-348.
Our 2 Series cable assembly showcases excellent phase stability against bending, developed with microwave/mmWave measurement environments in mind.
Its flexibility means low repulsion, reducing the load on the measured object
