TS9 M RA CRIMP for LMR100/RG174/RG316 Cable

Description

The TS9 series is one of the most widely used subminiature RF interfaces for consumer and industrial mobile broadband devices. This male (plug) variant is specifically optimized for micro-diameter cables, including the low-loss LMR100, flexible RG174, and high-temperature RG316. The 90-degree right-angle configuration provides a critical mechanical advantage in portable applications, allowing the cable to exit parallel to the device. This reduces the profile of the connection and significantly minimizes the leverage-induced stress on the delicate female ports of mobile routers and hotspots.

This connector utilizes a professional crimp termination system for the outer ferrule and a precision solder contact for the center conductor, ensuring a secure mechanical bond with high pull-off resistance. The TS9’s push-on coupling mechanism allows for rapid “plug-and-play” connectivity without the need for threading or tools. Manufactured with a gold-plated center contact and a durable nickel-plated brass body, it ensures reliable electrical performance and corrosion resistance across LTE, Wi-Fi, and sub-6 GHz 5G frequency bands.

Key Technical Advantages

• Low-Profile RA Routing: The 90-degree body design is ideal for space-constrained environments, preventing cable kinks and protecting the host device’s internal PCB from connector-related torque.

• Micro-Cable Precision Fit: Calibrated for the specific dimensions of LMR100, RG174, and RG316 (approx. 2.5mm–2.8mm OD), ensuring an optimized electrical transition and stable VSWR.

• Tool-Free Push-On Mating: Enables fast and easy connection/disconnection, making it perfect for field testing, temporary antenna setups, and consumer wireless hardware.

• Broadband Performance: Optimized to maintain 50-Ohm impedance stability up to 3 GHz (and usable up to 6 GHz), covering all major cellular and wireless data bands.

• Reliable Signal Integrity: Features high-grade PTFE (Teflon) insulation and gold-plated contacts to minimize insertion loss and maintain low contact resistance over time.
