CRC9 M RA CRIMP for LMR100/RG174/RG316 Cable

Description

The CRC9 series is a subminiature RF interface frequently utilized in the consumer and industrial wireless sectors for connecting external antennas to small-form-factor devices. This male (plug) variant is optimized for micro-diameter cables, including the low-loss LMR100, flexible RG174, and high-temperature RG316. The 90-degree right-angle configuration is specifically designed for space-constrained applications, allowing the cable to exit parallel to the device body to prevent strain on the micro-interface and reduce the overall footprint.

This connector utilizes a professional crimp termination system for the outer ferrule and a precision solder or crimp center contact, ensuring a secure mechanical bond and consistent electrical performance. The CRC9’s push-on coupling mechanism provides a quick and easy connection without the need for threading, which is essential for delicate ports on mobile broadband equipment. Manufactured with a gold or nickel-plated brass body and premium PTFE (Teflon) insulation, it ensures reliable signal transmission and durability across standard cellular and Wi-Fi frequency bands.

Key Technical Advantages

• Space-Efficient RA Design: The 90-degree body allows for low-profile routing, minimizing mechanical leverage and potential damage to the delicate female ports found on mobile modems and routers.

• Micro-Cable Precision Fit: Specifically calibrated for the dimensions of LMR100, RG174, and RG316 cables, ensuring an optimized electrical transition and high pull-off resistance.

• Rapid Push-On Integration: The threadless design facilitates quick “plug-and-play” connectivity, making it ideal for consumer-level antenna upgrades and field testing.

• Consistent 50-Ohm Performance: Engineered to maintain impedance stability up to 3 GHz, preventing signal loss and reflections in LTE, 4G, and Wi-Fi applications.

• Industrial Durability: Features gold-plated contacts to ensure low contact resistance and protection against oxidation over repeated mating cycles.
