New spring-loaded adapters offer enhanced connectivity and RF performance

Pasternack has launched its new line of spring-loaded adapters, developed for the SMP, SMPM and SMPS connector series. They are offered in various lengths to provide improved performance and connectivity solutions.

The adapters’ low VSWR ensures minimal signal reflection and optimises the efficiency of RF systems. The wide range of available lengths supplies flexibility for various applications and design configurations. The adapters operate over a wide frequency range of DC to 65GHz, making them ideal for high-frequency applications. Their performance is ensured under compression, for stable connections even under pressure.

The new adapters eradicate gaps between the adapter and receptacle, optimising RF performance and accommodating tolerance variations within PCBs. By eradicating gaps, they provide a stable and reliable connection. They attain superior RF performance, ensuring optimal signal integrity and efficiency.

“These spring-loaded adapters meet the high demands of modern RF applications, providing reliable and efficient solutions for our customers,” said senior product line manager Amar Ganwani. “The combination of low VSWR, wide frequency range and guaranteed performance under compression makes them an essential addition to any RF engineer’s toolkit.”
