BNC F Solder for Semi-rigid .141/RG402 Cable

Description

The BNC female solder connector is a foundational RF component, valued for its rapid bayonet coupling and robust mechanical interface. This variant is specialized for the .141-inch cable class, specifically optimized for solid-jacket Semi-Rigid and hand-formable RG402 cables. Unlike standard crimp connectors, this solder-on jack is designed for high-precision applications where maximum shielding effectiveness and mechanical rigidity are required.

This connector utilizes a direct-solder termination for both the center contact and the outer jacket. By soldering the cable’s copper or silver-plated jacket directly into the precision-machined rear bore of the connector body, the assembly achieves an airtight, 360-degree electrical bond. This method is superior for maintaining the lowest possible VSWR and ensuring consistent grounding in high-vibration environments. Manufactured with a durable nickel or tri-metal plated brass body and premium PTFE (Teflon) insulation, it delivers consistent 50-Ohm performance and reliable operation across the microwave spectrum.

Key Technical Advantages

• Direct-Solder Integrity: The solder-on body interface creates a continuous metallic shield with the cable jacket, providing maximum EMI/RFI protection essential for sensitive signal paths.

• Precision .141/RG402 Match: Specifically calibrated for the 0.141-inch OD jacket, ensuring an optimized electrical transition and high mechanical strength for specialized cable assemblies.

• Standard Bayonet Interface: Features the industry-standard female bayonet housing, allowing for rapid, tool-less mating with BNC male plugs.

• Phase-Stable Performance: The permanent solder bond minimizes signal fluctuations and non-linearities, making it ideal for precision jumpers and internal equipment routing.

• Heavy-Duty Construction: Features a precision-machined brass body and high-performance PTFE dielectric to withstand repeated mating cycles and maintain electrical integrity.
