EZ-195-QF-X QMA Female Quick Connector

Times Microwave EZ-195-QF-X QMA Female (Jack) for LMR-195 coaxial cable

EZ-195-QF-X Connector is a high-performance QMA Female (jack) connector designed for bulkhead mounting and quick, reliable termination of LMR-195 coaxial cable and similar flexible low-loss coaxial cables. As part of the EZ-Fit series, this connector is the ideal choice for creating a fast, secure, and tool-less feed-through connection on equipment panels, enclosures, and chassis. It combines the rapid snap-on/snap-off functionality of QMA female with the efficiency of solderless installation.

Key Features & Advantages

• Bulkhead Mount: Designed with threading, hex nut, and lock washer to secure the connector to a panel or enclosure, providing a stable, chassis-mounted feed-through.
• QMA Quick-Connect Interface: Utilizes a secure, tool-less snap-on locking mechanism, allowing for rapid mating and demating with QMA Male (plug) connectors, significantly reducing installation and service time.
• EZ-Fit™ Solderless Technology: Features a spring-finger inner contact, eliminating the need for soldering the center pin. This minimizes installation error, reduces assembly time, and maintains consistent electrical performance.
• High-Frequency Performance: Delivers low loss and excellent VSWR (Voltage Standing Wave Ratio) up to 6 GHz, suitable for demanding wireless and data applications.
• Simplified Cable Prep: The unique design eliminates the need to trim the coaxial cable braid, ensuring consistent electrical geometry and maximizing assembly quality.

Detailed Technical Specifications

Typical Applications

• Equipment Panel Interfaces: Creating easy-access antenna or test ports on network hardware, routers, and industrial controllers.
• Enclosure Feedthroughs: Securing coaxial cable entry and exit points on weatherproof boxes or telecommunications enclosures.
• High-Density Test Fixtures: Ideal for modular systems requiring many reliable, quickly-connected RF points.
• OEM Integration: Preferred by manufacturers for products where internal connections must be fast and secure against vibration.

Installation & Recommended Tooling

• Crimping Tool: The required hex die size (typically .213″ HEX) is necessary for securing the ferrule.
• Cable Prep Tool: A dedicated LMR-195 strip tool (e.g., CST-195/200) is strongly recommended for the precise strip dimensions needed for the solderless contact.
• Panel Drill Size: The bulkhead mounting requires a specific hole size (refer to the official datasheet for the exact diameter) for the connector body.
