TC-400-TM-RP-RA-D Reverse Polarity TNC male Right-angle connector for LMR-400 Coaxial Cable
TC-400-TM-RP-RA-D is a precision-engineered, high-frequency Reverse Polarity TNC (RP-TNC) Male connector designed for superior performance with LMR-400 series and similar size 400 coaxial cables (TCOM-400, T-RAD-400-FR). This connector is the ideal solution for applications demanding a space-saving right angle configuration combined with the required Reverse Polarity compliance for many wireless and Wi-Fi applications. Its robust construction and solder-pin attachment ensure a highly reliable, low-loss connection in challenging environments.
Key Features & Benefits
| Feature | Benefit |
| Reverse Polarity (RP-TNC) | Meets FCC regulatory standards for many Wi-Fi, WLAN, and commercial wireless systems. (Features a female center contact in a male-threaded body). |
| Right-Angle (RA) Design | Optimizes cable routing in tight spaces and enclosed cabinets, reducing cable strain and improving installation flexibility. |
| Solder Center Pin | Provides a permanent, low-loss electrical connection to the cable’s center conductor for superior signal integrity. Ideal for stranded center conductors. |
| Crimp Outer Contact | Ensures a secure and robust mechanical termination of the outer braid. |
| Wide Frequency Range | Excellent performance from DC up to 6 GHz, suitable for a broad spectrum of RF applications. |
| Superior Plating | Gold-plated inner pin for high conductivity and enhanced mate/de-mate life; Alballoy (or Tri-metal) body finish for market-leading corrosion/salt fog resistance. |
