EZ-240-SM-RA-X SMA Male Right Angle Crimp Connector
EZ-240-SM-RA-X Connector is a high-performance, Right-Angle (90°) SMA Male (plug) connector specifically engineered for terminating LMR-240 and similar flexible low-loss coaxial cable. This specialized connector is essential for installations where space constraints require the cable to exit the equipment immediately. It combines the superior low-loss performance of LMR-240 cable with the speed and reliability of the solderless EZ-Fit™ installation method.
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, crucial for compact devices and crowded panels.
- 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 cutting-edge spring-finger inner contact that eliminates the need for soldering the center pin, significantly reducing installation time and guaranteeing consistent, high-quality connections in the field.
- Compact SMA Interface: Provides the small, secure threaded interface widely used in cellular, GPS, and compact wireless systems where space is at a premium.
- Rugged and Reliable: Built with durable machined brass and nickel plating for excellent wear and corrosion resistance.
