TNC F 4H panel Mount Solder

Description

The TNC (Threaded Neill-Concelman) series is a high-reliability RF interface designed to maintain constant electrical contact in environments subject to intense shock and vibration. This 4-Hole Panel Mount variant features a precision-machined square flange that provides a permanent, non-rotating mechanical platform for mounting directly onto equipment chassis or internal bulkheads. The four-hole configuration ensures superior mechanical stability and ground contact compared to standard single-nut bulkhead mounts.

This connector features a solder-cup termination, allowing for the direct attachment of internal chassis wiring or the center conductor of a semi-rigid or flexible coaxial cable. By using a solder interface, this connector offers a low-resistance, high-integrity signal path that is ideal for custom RF modules, test fixtures, and low-frequency to microwave-frequency transitions. Manufactured with a heavy-duty nickel-plated brass body and premium PTFE (Teflon) insulation, it delivers consistent 50-Ohm performance and low VSWR up to 11 GHz.

Key Technical Advantages

• Rigid 4-Hole Flange Mount: Provides maximum mechanical stability and prevents the connector from twisting or loosening under heavy vibration, ensuring a permanent and reliable panel interface.

• Direct Solder Termination: Features a high-conductivity solder cup for easy and reliable internal wiring, making it the preferred choice for custom chassis builds and specialized instrumentation.

• Vibration-Proof Threaded Interface: The 7/16-28 external threads ensure a secure, locked connection when mated with TNC male plugs, essential for mobile military and industrial applications.

• High-Frequency Stability: Precision-machined to maintain consistent impedance and low insertion loss up to 11 GHz, supporting modern wireless, GPS, and telemetry bands.

• Rugged Environmental Build: The nickel-plated brass construction and PTFE dielectric offer excellent resistance to thermal cycling and oxidation, ensuring long-term performance in harsh deployment conditions.
