N M CRIMP for RG58/RG142/LMR195/LMR200 Cable

Description

The N-Type connector is one of the most reliable and widely used interfaces in RF engineering, specifically designed to handle medium to high power levels while maintaining low signal loss at microwave frequencies. This male (plug) variant is specialized for the 4.9mm to 5.5mm (0.195″ – 0.200″) cable class. It provides a precision fit for a broad range of industry-standard cables, from general-purpose RG58 and high-temperature RG142 to low-loss high-performance alternatives like LMR195 and LMR200.

This connector utilizes a professional crimp termination system. The precision-machined outer ferrule provides a 360-degree mechanical bond with the cable’s braid, while the gold-plated center pin is either soldered or crimped to ensure maximum signal integrity. Manufactured with a heavy-duty nickel-plated brass body and premium PTFE (Teflon) insulation, it delivers consistent 50-Ohm performance and low VSWR up to 11 GHz. The threaded interface provides superior mechanical stability and environmental resistance, making it essential for outdoor cellular towers, vehicle-mounted antennas, and industrial RF infrastructure.
