Hirose has augmented its range of compact coaxial connectors with the launch of three new mmWave field-replaceable solutions. The new mmWave connectors are compliant with IEC 61169-32, MIL-STD-348B and RoHS2 standards, and offer secure screw mounting and flexible cable options that simplify design and assembly.
The compact field replaceable coaxial connectors have a rugged design that ensures reliable and efficient performance even in challenging environments. This family of connectors provides superior impedance matching against temperature change in a space and weight-saving package.
The new field-replaceable coaxial lineup includes 1.85 mm, 2.4 mm, and 2.92 mm versions and is perfect for use in finished RF modules, measuring instrumentation, radio communication equipment, and more.
The HV-R-FR2(**) 1.85 mm coaxial connector provides high-frequency transmission up to 71 GHz with a return loss of more than 16.5 dB and a VSWR of 1.3:1 up to 50 GHz, 1.5:1 up to 60 GHz and 1.8:1 up to 67 GHz. See product details.
The version H2.4-R-FR2(**) 2.4 mm connector supports up to 50 GHz. The VSWR value is less than 1.3:1. See product details.
Whereas the HK-R-FR2(**) 2.92 mm coaxial connector supports up to 43.5 GHz with a VSWR value of 1.3:1.
Pete Lais, assistant vice president of product management for Hirose Electric Americas said, "Based on customer requests, we have developed the field replaceable miniature mmWave coaxial connector family to help simply maintenance and minimize downtime in high frequency applications,” .he further added, “Designed for finished RF modules, optical and electrical transmission equipment, electronic measuring instruments, and other high frequency devices, the field replaceable mmWave connector product family combines a low-profile with excellent high frequency performance.”
