N M RA Solder for 1/2″ Feeder Cable

Description

The N-Type connector is prized for its exceptional mechanical strength and stable performance across the microwave spectrum. This Right Angle (RA) variant is specialized for the 1/2″ corrugated cable class, which serves as a primary link in high-capacity telecommunications infrastructure. The 90-degree configuration is essential for tight-access cabinet routing and antenna mounting where vertical clearance is limited, allowing the cable to be routed cleanly without exceeding its minimum bend radius.

This connector utilizes a solder-style termination for the center conductor, paired with a mechanical clamp or solder body interface for the outer conductor. By soldering the center pin, the connector establishes a permanent, low-resistance electrical bond that is superior for maintaining signal consistency under high-power loads and extreme thermal cycling. Manufactured with a reinforced tri-metal (Albaloy) plated brass body and premium PTFE (Teflon) insulation, it delivers consistent 50-Ohm performance and exceptionally low VSWR up to 8.8 GHz. The robust construction and integrated weather-proofing gaskets ensure total reliability in exposed outdoor environments and high-capacity wireless installations.

Key Technical Advantages

• Space-Saving 90° Profile: Facilitates clean, high-density cable routing in tight-access areas, reducing the mechanical footprint and protecting the 1/2″ cable from tight-radius kinking.

• High-Integrity Solder Interface: The solder-on center contact ensures a permanent electrical bond, minimizing contact resistance and maximizing Passive Intermodulation (PIM) stability.

• 1/2″ Corrugated Cable Match: Specifically calibrated for the annular corrugation profile of 1/2″ cables, ensuring maximum surface contact for superior conductivity and extreme pull-off strength.

• Superior Power Handling: Engineered to manage high-power RF signals with minimal heat generation, making it ideal for primary feeder jumpers and broadcast applications.

• Rugged Environmental Sealing: Features multiple integrated gaskets and O-rings to provide an IP68-rated moisture barrier, protecting the solder junction from oxidation and environmental degradation.

Key Features

• Interface Type: N-Type Male (Plug) Right Angle (90°) with standard 5/8-24 threaded coupling.
