RFN-1006-I-WB was named Top 101 Components for 2009 by Electronic Design Magazine.

Improved Environmental Performance for Solderless N Connector

The majority of N type connectors are installed at remote sites exposed to the environment. The RF Connectors Division of RF Industries offers an improved N male connector for high performance .400 inch diameter cables. Part number RFN-1006-I-WB features white bronze plating for a non-tarnish finish with enhanced electrical performance. The plating is ferrous metal free, which reduces inter-modulation interference. A ridged back end provides better sealing for the heat shrink boot included with the connector. A combination hex/knurl coupling nut allows for wrench or finger mating. The connector may be attached to multiple brands of high performance cables including Times LMR®-400, Andrew CNT®®-400, CommScope WBC®-400 and Belden® RF-400. The connector is assembled with industry standard crimp tools with .429 inch and .118 inch hex dies. The contact design includes a “weep hole” for optional solder installation.

7/16 DIN connectors are large format 50 ohm interfaces designed for high power wireless telecom applications. RF Connectors, division of RF Industries, introduces two versions of 7/16 DIN connectors for LMR-600® cable. The RFD-1600-2L2 attaches to the cable with a solder/clamp method. The RFD-1605-2L-2 attaches with a crimp/solder method. Both connectors have a combination feature that allows them to be assembled for straight or right angle applications in the field. Both connectors conform to the DIN specification of silver plated bodies and pins with Teflon® dielectric. The coupling nuts are designed with a hex/ knurl combination that allows for hand or wrench tightening.

Originally developed and deployed in Europe, the 7/16 interface has gained acceptance in North America. DIN is an acronym for Deutsch Industries Norm, a German standard. 7/16 is derived from the diameter of the center contact (7mm) and the diameter of the outer contact (16mm). Characteristics of the design include silver plated connector bodies and contacts for reduced signal distortion from intermodulation. Operating frequency range is up to 7.5Ghz.
