N F 4H Panel Mount Solder for Semi-rigid .141/RG402 Cable

Description

The N-Type female panel mount connector is prized for its exceptional mechanical strength and stable performance across the microwave spectrum. This variant features a 4-hole square flange (4H), providing a robust mounting solution that ensures the connector remains fixed under high torque and maintains a constant, high-integrity ground connection to the equipment chassis. It is specialized for the .141-inch cable class, specifically optimized for solid-jacket Semi-Rigid and hand-formable RG402 cables.

This connector utilizes a direct-solder termination for both the center conductor and the outer jacket. By soldering the cable’s copper or silver-plated jacket directly into the rear bore of the connector body, the assembly achieves an airtight, 360-degree electrical bond. This method is superior for maintaining maximum shielding effectiveness and ensuring the lowest possible VSWR in high-frequency applications. Manufactured with a durable tri-metal or gold-plated brass body and premium PTFE (Teflon) insulation, it delivers consistent 50-Ohm performance and exceptionally low attenuation up to 18 GHz.

Key Technical Advantages

• 4-Hole Square Flange Mount: Provides superior mechanical stability and surface contact, ensuring the connector remains secure and maintains a stable ground path to the chassis.

• Microwave Grade Shielding: The direct-solder body interface creates a continuous metallic shield, providing maximum EMI/RFI protection essential for sensitive microwave circuitry.

• Precision .141/RG402 Match: Specifically calibrated for the 0.141-inch OD jacket, ensuring an optimized electrical transition and high mechanical rigidity for phase-sensitive applications.

• Phase-Stable Performance: The permanent solder bond minimizes signal fluctuations and non-linearities, making it ideal for precision jumpers and internal cabinet routing.

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