TE Connectivity EP-SMA 27GHz RF Connectors, Adaptors, & Assemblies

TE Connectivity’s (TE) EP-SMA 27GHz RF Connectors, Adaptors, and Cable Assemblies provide low insertion loss and low voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) to meet the needs required in test and measurement, aerospace and defense, and wireless markets. The adaptors offer <1.15 (max.) typical VSWR and the cable assemblies: <1.20. The EP-SMA series features 50Ω nominal impedance and -65°C to +165°C temperature range. The components have the same footprint as SMA-6GHz, 12GHz, 18GHz solutions, so there is typically no need to change the layout to allow higher frequencies of up to 27GHz or higher electrical SMA performance. Applications for TE EP-SMA 27GHz RF Connectors, Adaptors, and Cable Assemblies include 5G, Automated Test Equipment (ATE), bench tops, modules, wireless devices, and radars.
