Featured Products this Week
RF Connector
BMA Blind-Mate RF Connectors

RF Connector from MOLEX

The BMA connectors from Molex are similar in size to SMA connectors and can operate to 18 GHz or above, depending on the configuration and cable selected. They are ideal for rack and panel RF applications where axial and radial float are needed. The BMA connectors have Blind mate capabilities – up to 1.27 mm axial and 0.5 mm radial misalignment. These connectors have protected spring contacts that assure reliable, damage-free mating.
