SMA M RA for RG402/Semi-rigid .141 Cable

Description

The SMA Male Right-Angle Solder Connector for RG402 is a professional-grade RF component designed for applications where space is critically limited but signal integrity cannot be compromised. Because RG402 features a solid copper outer conductor, this connector utilizes a direct-solder body attachment.

The cable’s outer conductor is soldered 360 degrees directly to the connector body, creating a seamless, gas-tight mechanical and electrical bond. The Right-Angle (90 °) geometry allows for tight cable routing inside shielded enclosures without exceeding the minimum bend radius of the semi-rigid cable, which could otherwise cause signal reflections. This termination method ensures the highest possible EMI/RFI shielding and maintains an ultra-low VSWR across frequencies reaching up to 18 GHz.

Key Technical Advantages

• Compact 90 degree Profile: Facilitates high-density packaging in RF modules and prevents mechanical stress on the cable jacket.

• Direct-Solder Body Mount: Provides the most stable mechanical connection and superior electrical grounding compared to crimp or clamp styles.

• Maximum RF Shielding: The soldered transition ensures virtually zero signal leakage, which is essential for sensitive receiver or high-power transmitter paths.

• Low VSWR & Insertion Loss: Precision-machined to maintain a strict 50 Ohm impedance, optimized for high-frequency microwave performance.

• Thermal Stability: Equipped with high-purity Teflon (PTFE) insulation to maintain consistent dielectric properties even during the high-heat soldering process.

Key Features

• Direct-Solder Termination: Optimized specifically for the .141″ diameter of semi-rigid and hand-formable cables.

• Gold-Plated Brass/Stainless Steel Body: Offers maximum conductivity and exceptional resistance to corrosion and oxidation.

• Standard 1/4-36 Threaded Nut: Ensures a secure, vibration-proof mating with any standard SMA female (jack) interface.

• Gold-Plated Center Pin: Provides a low-resistance contact point for precise high-speed signal transmission.

• High Frequency Rating: Reliably supports microwave applications from DC up to 18 GHz.
