TNC PLUG STRAIGHT CRIMP (EZ-240-TM-X)
EZ-240-TM-X Connector is a high-performance TNC Male (plug) connector specifically engineered for rapid, reliable termination of LMR-240 and similar flexible low-loss coaxial cable. As a premium component of the revolutionary EZ-Fit series, this connector provides the rugged, threaded TNC interface combined with the convenience of solderless installation. It’s the ideal choice for creating durable, low-loss cable assemblies for systems operating up to 6 GHz.
Key Features & Advantages
- LMR-240 Optimized: Precisely matched to the electrical and physical requirements of LMR-240 coaxial cable, ensuring lower signal loss and superior performance compared to assemblies using smaller cables.
- 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.
- TNC Threaded Interface: Provides a secure, vibration-resistant threaded coupling, offering reliable performance superior to bayonet (BNC) connectors in many environments.
- No Braid Trim Design: The connector’s design simplifies cable preparation by eliminating the braid trim step, ensuring a consistent, optimal termination geometry.
- Rugged Construction: Built with durable machined brass and Alballoy (White Bronze) plating for excellent corrosion resistance and longevity.
