Leading RF interconnects solutions provider, Cinch Connectivity Solutions, has announced the expansion of its 2.92mm Series with vertical launch, PCB compression mount connectors that come with and without a side groove. This type of connector is commonly used in test and measurement applications, semi-conductor testing fixtures, PC board characterization, and networking applications.
The new 2.92mm connectors are designed to provide low return loss values for frequencies up to 40 GHz. The side groove connector enables microstrip or grounded coplanar waveguide (GCPW) designs that are suitable for various board materials and thicknesses. Both are available in 2-hole flange mount and the vertical launch design reduces footprint requirements without sacrificing performance.
The solder-less design allows for peak RF performance and can be easily mounted, removed and reused with little difficulty. These new vertical mount jacks are part of a growing offering of Johnson 2.92mm mmWave products for 5G applications.
