Durable locking cable assembly portfolio with new options for SMA connectors

Amphenol RF is excited to announce the expansion of our locking cable assembly portfolio with configurations using high-frequency SMA connectors. The secure locking feature of the locking connector on these cable assemblies improves the necessary force needed to de-mate the connector, making them excellent for strenuous applications that undergo continuous movement or vibrations. The 1.13mm cabling utilised on these assemblies is easily routable and comes in pre-configured lengths of 50mm to 400mm.

The SMA connector featured on the assembly has a threaded coupling mechanism ensuring a secure connection. MHF I LK locking connectors are made from durable phosphor bronze with gold plating, ensuring resistance to harsh environments. SMA connectors are constructed from brass and feature gold plating. Quality materials employed in creating these assemblies deliver high-performance reliability in various demanding and rigorous applications.

This new expansion supports frequencies up to 6GHz and is available as an off-the-shelf solution. It joins a growing catalogue of locking cable assemblies engineered for innovative applications such as drones, wireless communication and automotive.
