Amphenol RF announces new cable assemblies

They come available in pre-configured lengths of 6 (0.15m), 9.84 (0.25m) inches on 0.085-inch conformable cable. Offering ease of installation, conformable cables provide a more flexible alternative to less versatile semi-rigid coaxial cable types, and are preferred for applications that require low loss. 2.92 mm cable assemblies are ideal for communication, SATCOM, microwave and quantum computing applications.

These assemblies offer reliable electrical performance up to 40GHz while providing low VSWR. The 2.92 mm interface is engineered with the ability to mate with SMA and 3.5 mm interfaces, and features a passivated stainless steel coupling nut for secure mating. The body is constructed from durable gold-plated stainless steel and has a gold-plated beryllium copper contact. The body and female centre contacts of the SMP and SMPM plugs are manufactured with gold-plated beryllium copper. SMP plugs offer high-frequency performance with a compact size, while SMPM plugs offer similar performance in a significantly smaller package size.

These new configurations join a growing portfolio of 2.92mm cable assemblies available as off-the-shelf solutions in standard lengths.
