RF and wireless systems are used extensively in virtually every modern application. Hence, there are a wide array of different types of RF Connectors to provide interconnect between modules and systems either via board-to-board, board-to-cable, or module-to-board connections. RF connectors are the physical piece of equipment that is used to provide a convenient and standardized ..

  RF coaxial connectors are one of the most useful and ubiquitous methods of connecting RF systems and components. RF coaxial connectors are coaxial transmission lines made up of an RF coaxial cable and RF coaxial connectors terminating either end of the cable. RF connectors provide interconnect with other RF connectors, which must be of ..

In the realm of high-frequency signal transmission, the choice of connectors is crucial for maintaining signal integrity and overall system performance. One connector that stands out for applications up to 40 GHz is the 2.92mm connector, commonly known as the K connector. This blog post delves into what the 2.92mm connector is, where it’s used, ..

There has been an increasing use of RF coaxial connectors, especially microwave and millimeter-wave coaxial connectors, for high-speed digital and precision sensing applications, There are also a growing trend toward highly compact and interconnect dense microwave and millimeter-wave systems, such as multi-input multi-output (MIMO) antennas for 5G and actively electronically scanned array (AESA) radar antennas. ..

Introduction In the previous blog, Part 1 of “RF Interconnect Insights for High Speed Digital Signals and Data Communications” two part series, the concept of RF interconnect used in high speed digital applications was introduced. In this section, more insights will be provided on intermodulation distortion concerns and other challenges with trends in high speed ..
