Sma Female Straight 2 Hole Panel Mount Connector With 5mm Teflon

An SMA Female Straight 2-Hole Panel Mount Connector with 5mm Teflon is a specialized RF connector designed for mounting on panels or enclosures. Here’s a detailed overview of this connector:

1. Connector Type:

   • SMA (SubMiniature version A): A standard RF connector known for its durability and ability to handle high frequencies.

2. Gender:

   • Female: The connector features internal threads and accepts a male SMA connector.

3. Mounting Type:

   • Panel Mount: Designed to be attached to a panel or enclosure.
   • 2-Hole: It has two mounting holes for securing it in place, which is less common than the 4-hole variant but useful for specific designs or space constraints.

4. Insulator Material:

   • 5mm Teflon: Teflon (PTFE) is used as the dielectric material. The “5mm” refers to the thickness of the Teflon insulator, which ensures low signal loss and high-frequency performance.

5. Mechanical and Electrical Specifications:

   • Impedance: Typically 50 ohms, suitable for most RF applications.
   • Frequency Range: SMA connectors generally support frequencies up to 18 GHz or higher.
   • Connector Style: Straight, meaning the connector does not have any angular bends, which makes it ideal for straightforward, direct connections.

6. Connector Body and Finish:

   • Material: Usually made from brass or stainless steel for strength and durability.
   • Finish: Commonly gold-plated contacts to enhance conductivity and resistance to corrosion.

1. Determine Your Requirements:

   • Panel Specifications: Confirm the panel or enclosure dimensions and ensure it has the appropriate cutout and hole spacing for the 2-hole mounting style.
   • Performance Needs: Verify that the connector meets your requirements in terms of impedance, frequency range, and electrical performance.

2. Find a Supplier:

   • Manufacturers and Distributors: Look for suppliers specializing in RF connectors. Major manufacturers include Amphenol, Radiall, and TE Connectivity. Distributors like Digi-Key, Mouser, or RS Components also carry these connectors.

3. Order Details:

   • Specify the Connector: Clearly state that you need an SMA Female Straight 2-Hole Panel Mount Connector with 5mm Teflon.
   • Quantity: Indicate the number of connectors required to get a pricing quote.
