Right Angle QMA Male Plug Connector
EZ-240-QM-RA-X Connector is a high-performance, Right-Angle (90°) QMA Male (plug) connector specifically engineered for terminating LMR-240 and similar flexible low-loss coaxial cable. This specialized connector is essential for installations where quick-connect speed and space-saving design are paramount. It combines the superior low-loss performance of LMR-240 Coaxial cable with the speed of solderless EZ-Fit™ installation and the convenience of the QMA snap-on mechanism.
Key Features & Advantages
- Right-Angle (RA) Design: The 90-degree body allows the LMR-240 Coaxial cable to exit the connection point immediately, minimizing cable bending stress and reducing the required footprint in compact or crowded systems.
- QMA Quick-Connect Interface: Utilizes a secure, tool-less snap-on/snap-off locking mechanism instead of threading, allowing for faster mating and demating compared to traditional SMA or N-Type connectors.
- LMR-240 Optimized: Precisely matched to the electrical and physical requirements of LMR-240 Coaxial cable, ensuring low insertion loss and excellent VSWR performance up to 6 GHz.
- EZ-Fit™ Solderless Technology: Features a spring-finger inner contact that eliminates the need for soldering the center pin, significantly reducing installation time and improving assembly consistency in the field.
- Rugged Construction: Built with durable machined brass and nickel plating for reliable performance in demanding environments.
