Mini UHF M CRIMP RG58/RG142/LMR195/LMR200 Cable

Description

The Mini-UHF series was developed as a scaled-down, more compact alternative to the standard UHF connector, specifically for applications where size and weight are critical factors. This male (plug) variant is optimized for the 5mm (0.195″) cable class, allowing for high-quality terminations on flexible RG58, heat-resistant RG142, and high-efficiency LMR195/LMR200 cables. It provides a reliable 50-Ohm interface for mobile transceivers, particularly those used in automotive, trucking, and public safety fleets.

This connector utilizes a professional crimp termination system. The outer ferrule creates a 360-degree mechanical bond with the cable’s outer jacket and braid, offering exceptional pull-off resistance and protecting signal integrity in high-vibration mobile environments. The center contact is precision-machined to ensure a secure electrical path within Mini-UHF female ports. Manufactured with a nickel-plated brass body and premium dielectric insulation, it maintains stable performance across the VHF and UHF frequency bands.

Key Technical Advantages
