Description
The RP-TNC (Reverse Polarity TNC) series is a specialized variation of the TNC interface, standard in wireless networking to meet regulatory requirements. This Right Angle (RA) male variant is optimized for the 6.1mm (0.240″) cable class, providing a precision termination for ultra-low-loss LMR240 cable. By orienting the cable exit at 90 degrees to the mating interface, it allows for streamlined cable routing in shallow enclosures or behind-the-panel mounts, preventing hazardous kinking in semi-rigid low-loss coaxial lines.
In this Male (Plug) configuration, the connector maintains standard TNC male threads but utilizes a female center socket instead of a pin. It uses a professional crimp termination system, where the outer ferrule provides a 360-degree mechanical bond with the cable’s shielding. Manufactured with a heavy-duty nickel-plated brass body and premium PTFE (Teflon) insulation, it delivers consistent 50-Ohm performance and stable impedance up to 6 GHz, making it ideal for high-performance WLAN and industrial IoT infrastructure.
Key Technical Advantages
-
90° Space-Efficient Profile: Ideal for installations in compact wireless enclosures or behind equipment racks where a straight connector would exceed depth limits or cause cable stress.
-
Reverse Polarity Compliance: Specifically designed for Wi-Fi access points and routers requiring RP-TNC interfaces, ensuring a seamless fit with commercial networking hardware.
-
LMR240 Precision Calibration: Specifically engineered to fit 0.240-inch OD cables, ensuring an optimized electrical transition and high-strength pull-off resistance.
-
Vibration-Proof Threaded Coupling: The 7/16-28 threaded mechanism prevents signal intermittent issues and accidental disconnection, outperforming bayonet-style connectors in industrial applications.
-
Superior Environmental Durability: The nickel-plated brass construction and PTFE dielectric offer excellent resistance to thermal cycling and oxidation in demanding outdoor deployments.
