Description
The SMC Male (Plug) Crimp Connector is a specialized threaded RF interface designed for environments where mechanical security and electrical precision are mandatory. Unlike the snap-on SMB series, the SMC utilizes a threaded coupling to ensure a semi-permanent, stable connection that will not decouple during high-vibration events. This variant is precision-machined to accommodate the larger physical profile of standard 5mm to 5.5mm diameter cables, including the widely used RG58, the high-temperature RG142, and low-loss LMR195/LMR200 series.
Built for performance up to 10 GHz, this connector features a dual-crimp termination for both the center conductor and the outer ferrule, providing industrial-grade mechanical retention and excellent EMI/RFI shielding. The robust threaded design makes it particularly effective in onboard avionics, mobile communications, and ruggedized industrial equipment. Manufactured with a gold-plated brass body and premium PTFE (Teflon) insulation, it maintains low VSWR and exceptional signal integrity across a wide range of operating temperatures and environmental conditions.
Key Technical Advantages
-
Vibration-Resistant Threaded Security: The #10-32 threaded interface provides a secure mechanical lock that prevents signal interruption in high-motion environments, outperforming snap-on connectors.
-
Versatile 50-Ohm Cable Compatibility: Specifically calibrated for the dimensions of RG58, RG142, and LMR200-style cables, ensuring a secure mechanical grip and optimized signal path.
-
High-Frequency Performance: Engineered to support stable signal transmission up to 10 GHz, making it suitable for microwave communications and high-speed data links.
-
Superior Pull-Off Resistance: The dual-crimp design ensures maximum mechanical strength, protecting the internal signal path from cable tension or displacement.
-
Corrosion-Resistant Gold Plating: Premium gold-over-nickel plating on critical contact surfaces ensures low contact resistance and long-term protection against oxidation.
