SMPM bullet adapters eliminate magnetic interference and increase performance

Amphenol RF has introduced new non-magnetic SMPM bullet adapters into its extensive adapter portfolio. With its specially engineered design, this adapter is immune to interference from electromagnetic fields, ensuring constant and reliable performance. This adapter is equipped with enhanced signal integrity capabilities and is compatible with the company's non-magnetic SMPM connectors, allowing further design opportunities. Available in lengths from 5.33mm to 13.3mm, this adapter joins the robust catalogue of SMPM board-to-board solutions. The company's non-magnetic SMPM bullet adapters are engineered for MRI, quantum computing, radar systems and GPS applications.

The durable body is made from beryllium copper with 10µin of gold plating over 80µin of white bronze plating, while the contact pin is made from beryllium copper with 30µin of gold plating and 80µin of white bronze plating. This permits the ruggedised PTFE-insulated SMPM adapter to provide dependable, high-frequency performance in harsh environments. These adapters are also obtainable with smooth bore and limited detent compatibility, as detented connectors hold the bullet adapter in place on the board while the smooth bore connector permits for float. The axial misalignment for these adapters is 0.25mm, while the radial misalignment is 3°.

With a 50-Ohm impedance and data transmission rates of up to 65GHz, these non-magnetic SMPM bullet adapters join a robust offering of SMPM adapters and connectors as off-the-shelf solutions.
