Bomar New SMP Interface System with Superior RF Performance
Bomar New SMP Interface System with Superior RF Performance
Bomar Interconnect Products expanded their RF connector offering with the introduction of the new SMP Interface System. The robust, multi-functional system is commonly employed in a wide range of subminiature, high-frequency coaxial cable-to-board and board-to-board applications. Engineered to securely mate and maintain performance through 40 GHz, the 50-Ohm subminiature devices additionally feature a VSWR of 1.18 maximum at 40GHz. SMP male PCB connectors are available in vertical surface-mount, vertical surface-mount thru-hole (for extra board retention), and edge-mount configurations. They are notably supplied in three levels of detent, each with different engage and disengage coupling forces: full detent, limited detent, and smooth bore. The full detent provides the highest insertion and withdrawal forces and the smooth bore offers the lowest. Bomar’s cable-ended SMP female connectors accommodate cable sizes 0.047, 0.085, and 0.086 diameter semi-rigid or conformable coaxial cable. Additional cable sizes are available upon request.
Specifically engineered to accommodate high-density packaging, the series’ size and ease of installation makes it well suited for a wide range of mission-critical applications in the aerospace, telecom, broadband, defense, instrumentation, and microwave market segments. The parts are most commonly specified for use in such multiple-port, high-density modular packaging applications such as communication equipment, satellites, phased arrays, and active antennas, along with ground, airborne, and ship-born radar.
The devices are supplied in a variety of standard gold plate and custom-plating alternatives.
