Description
The SMA Female Solder Connector for RG.086 is a professional-grade RF component optimized for high-performance signal transmission. Because RG.086 (also known as RG405) features a solid silver-plated 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. This method eliminates signal leakage and passive intermodulation (PIM) common in crimp-style alternatives. It is the industry standard for internal chassis wiring, RF modules, and laboratory test fixtures operating in the DC to 18 GHz range, where maintaining an ultra-low VSWR is critical.
Key Technical Advantages
-
Superior RF Shielding: The 360? direct-solder transition provides essentially 100% EMI/RFI protection for sensitive signal paths.
-
Ultra-Low VSWR: Precision-machined internal geometry maintains a strict 50 Ohm impedance, minimizing signal reflection even at microwave frequencies.
-
Maximum Mechanical Integrity: The soldered joint ensures the connector remains stable under extreme thermal expansion and high-vibration conditions.
-
Thermal Stability: Equipped with high-purity Teflon (PTFE) insulation to maintain electrical properties during the high-heat soldering process.
Key Features
-
Direct-Solder Termination: Optimized specifically for the .086″ diameter of semi-rigid and hand-formable cables.
-
Premium Materials: Constructed from gold-plated brass or stainless steel for maximum conductivity and corrosion resistance.
-
Standard SMA Female Interface: Features internal threads and a gold-plated beryllium copper socket for universal compatibility.
-
Broad Frequency Support: Reliably handles high-speed data and microwave signals from DC up to 18 GHz.
-
Compact Form Factor: Ideal for high-density packaging within RF enclosures and modules.

Really worth the price and the product quality is excellent. Packaging was secure and delivery was on time. Much better option for Indian customers instead of importing from outside India. Thank you AetherX!
