N F 4H Panel Mount CLAMP for LMR400/RG8/RG11/RG213/RG393 Cable

Description

The N-Type female panel mount connector is a fundamental component for high-power RF interfacing, prized for its mechanical stability and superior grounding. This variant features a 4-hole square flange (4H), providing a robust mounting solution that prevents connector rotation and ensures maximum surface contact with the equipment chassis, which is essential for maintaining a low-impedance ground path. It is specialized for the 10mm (0.405″) cable class, specifically optimized for high-performance LMR400 and heavy-duty RG213.

Unlike crimp-style connectors that require large specialized tooling, this variant utilizes a mechanical clamp termination system. This design employs an internal compression sleeve to secure the cable braid, providing a high-strength connection that can be assembled on-site with standard wrenches. As a female interface (jack), it provides the external threaded mating point for an enclosure, allowing for a seamless transition from internal jumpers to external antenna feeders. Manufactured with a heavy-duty nickel-plated brass body and premium PTFE (Teflon) insulation, it ensures consistent 50-Ohm performance and reliable operation up to 11 GHz.

Key Technical Advantages

• 4-Hole Square Flange Mount: Provides superior mechanical stability compared to single-nut mounts, ensuring the connector remains fixed under the high mating torque and cable weight associated with large-diameter coaxial lines.

• Field-Installable Design: The clamp-style assembly allows for high-integrity terminations without the need for heavy-duty crimping tools, ideal for on-site repairs and custom infrastructure installations.

• Large-Gauge Cable Match: Specifically calibrated for the 0.405-inch OD cable family, ensuring maximum pull-off resistance and an optimized electrical transition for low-loss, high-power lines.

• Vibration-Proof Threaded Interface: The 5/8-24 threaded outer shell ensures a secure, locked mating with male connectors, resisting loosening in high-wind, mobile, or tower-top environments.

• High-Grade Materials: Features a nickel-plated brass body and a gold-plated center contact for maximum corrosion resistance and consistent signal clarity over the life of the product.
