The N Female Bulkhead for RG402 cable is ideal for engineers and technicians who are using semi-rigid cable in their applications. This connector is designed for use with RG402 (.141" diameter) cable and has a 50 Ohm characteristic impedance to ensure high frequency performance. This connector is a straight body N Female Bulkhead panel mount connector which allows RF signal to go through walls, enclosures and equipment panels without compromising the signal’s shielding or mechanical integrity. The N Female interface is threaded which provides a very secure and vibration resistant connection. It is commonly used on lab benches, outdoor radio systems, base stations and other industrial RF applications. It is typically soldered to the end of the cable and provides high return loss when installed correctly. It is designed to operate at high frequencies up to the microwave frequency range (up to 18 GHz for quality connectors). These connectors are commonly used for custom cable assemblies, test fixtures and panel feedthroughs. They are a practical solution for long term reliable operation in applications where high frequency performance and repeatability are critical. These connectors allow users to connect their semi-rigid cable to other equipment that uses standard N-type connectors using. When purchasing these connectors, it is important to note that proper cable preparation, soldering and mounting torque are critical to the connector’s RF performance and mechanical integrity. As with any precision RF component, it is also important to follow good RF assembly practices.
