Coaxial Connectors (RF) - Contacts are specialized electronic components designed to transmit radio frequency signals through a coaxial cable which consists of a core conductor, an insulating layer, a metallic shield, and an outer layer. These contacts are the core conductive parts that form the connection point within a coaxial connector, where the signals are transferred between the cable and the device. They are vital for maintaining a strong, reliable connection that is resistant to interference, ensuring high-quality signal transmission. Their main functions include securing the cable in place, providing a stable electrical connection, and maintaining the integrity of the signal being carried.
These contacts are found in a wide range of applications, from telecommunications and data networking to aerospace and consumer electronics. They are designed to support various signal frequencies, power levels, and environmental conditions, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. Characteristics of these products include their durability, corrosion resistance, and ability to maintain a solid connection even in the face of vibration or other physical disturbances. Notable manufacturers of Coaxial Connectors (RF) - Contacts include Amphenol, TE Connectivity, Molex, and Cinch Connectivity Solutions, among others.
