SMA M RA CLAMP for LMR400/RG8/RG11/RG213 Cable

Description

The SMA Male Right-Angle Clamp Connector is engineered for precision RF systems where field termination and maximum mechanical durability are essential. This connector is specifically sized for thick, low-loss cables with an approximate 0.405-inch outer diameter, including LMR400, RG8, RG11, and RG213.

Unlike crimp connectors that require specialized die sets, the clamp-style attachment uses a compression nut and internal gaskets to secure the cable’s shield and jacket. This creates a high-torque, water-resistant seal that is ideal for outdoor antenna installations and harsh industrial environments. The Right-Angle (90?) orientation facilitates clean cable management in tight enclosures, significantly reducing the required depth for installation and preventing signal degradation caused by sharp cable bends.

Key Technical Advantages

• Field-Replaceable Clamp Design: Allows for secure termination without a crimping tool, making it ideal for on-site repairs or custom cable assemblies.

   

• Superior Weather Resistance: The internal clamp and silicone gaskets provide a robust seal against moisture and dust, suitable for both indoor and outdoor usage.

   

• Low VSWR & High Efficiency: Precision-machined to maintain a strict 50 Ohm impedance, ensuring minimal signal reflections and low insertion loss across frequencies up to 6 GHz.

   

• 360? Shield Contact: The mechanical clamp ensures consistent, high-pressure contact with the cable’s braid, providing exceptional EMI/RFI shielding.

• High Power Handling: Engineered to support medium to high-power RF transmissions, typically rated for applications up to 50-335 Watts (frequency dependent).

Key Features

• 90? Right-Angle Configuration: Maximizes space in dense RF racks and prevents physical stress on thick, rigid coaxial cables.

   

• Gold-Plated Brass Construction: Provides maximum conductivity and superior protection against environmental corrosion and oxidation.

   

• High-Purity PTFE (Teflon) Insulator: Ensures stable dielectric properties and high heat resistance during the assembly process.

• Standard 1/4-36 Threaded Nut: Guaranteed compatibility with all standard SMA female (jack) interfaces.

• Broad Cable Compatibility: A versatile solution for high-performance cables including LMR400, RG8, RG11, RG213, and Belden 9913.
