SMZ F Solder Type for BT3002 Cable

Description

The SMZ Female (Jack) Solder Type Connector for BT3002 is a specialized RF interface developed primarily for the UK and European telecommunications sectors. Also known as the BT43 connector, the SMZ series is the 75-Ohm evolution of the SMB design, featuring a larger physical size to accommodate higher-density digital signal requirements. This solder-type variant is engineered for applications where electrical permanence and maximum signal integrity are paramount, providing a fused connection that minimizes contact resistance in high-speed digital lines.

Maintaining a strict 75-Ohm impedance profile, this connector is essential for preventing signal reflections and return loss in E1, E3, and DS3 digital transmission circuits. The female interface utilizes a robust snap-on coupling mechanism, providing a secure “click-lock” mating that is both vibration-resistant and easy to integrate into high-density panels. Manufactured with a high-grade gold-plated brass body and premium PTFE (Teflon) insulation, it delivers exceptional electrical stability and superior protection against oxidation in temperature-controlled equipment rooms.

Key Technical Advantages

• Permanent Solder Bond: The solder-style center pin ensures a high-conductivity, permanent interface that outperforms mechanical crimping in sensitive, high-frequency digital telephony applications.

• BT3002 Precision Engineering: Specifically calibrated to the 0.31mm center conductor and 3.55mm outer diameter of BT3002 cable, ensuring a seamless mechanical and electrical transition.

• 75-Ohm System Integrity: Engineered to maintain critical impedance matching for telecommunications standards, preventing data errors in high-capacity digital distribution.

• Robust Snap-On Mechanism: The SMZ interface provides a secure mechanical lock that is more substantial than standard SMB connectors, making it ideal for the rigors of DDF patching.

• High-Grade Thermal Stability: Equipped with a premium PTFE dielectric that maintains its structural integrity and electrical properties during the professional soldering process.
