Engineered for up to 40 GHz performance, the latest 2.92 mm adapters deliver robust precision, low signal loss, and lasting durability for high-frequency test systems.
Amphenol RF has expanded its precision adapter lineup with the launch of its new 2.92 mm adapters, engineered to push accuracy and reliability in advanced test and measurement environments. Designed for high-frequency applications reaching up to 40 GHz, the adapters promise exceptional signal integrity, making them a crucial component for modern broadband and millimeter-wave systems.
The key characteristics are:
- Intermateable design: Compatible with SMA and 3.5 mm connectors for seamless integration into existing test setups.
- Low VSWR: Ensures accurate, repeatable measurements across high-frequency ranges.
- Minimal insertion loss: Maintains signal integrity for dependable test results in demanding environments.
The adapters are tailored for laboratory, production test, and field applications where precision and repeatability are paramount. Versatility is another strong suit. Built with a ruggedized stainless steel body and gold-plated beryllium copper contacts, they deliver mechanical resilience and corrosion resistance even in harsh or high-vibration environments. The design also supports up to 500 mating cycles, guaranteeing long operational life and reduced maintenance costs.
Internally, the company employs ULTEM 1000 and PTFE dielectric materials for enhanced phase stability, insulation, and mechanical strength—critical for stable performance in 5G networks, radar systems, aerospace applications, and broadband communications. Each adapter is precision-machined to comply with MIL-STD-348 interface standards, ensuring exact 2.92 mm compatibility and consistent mechanical alignment. Compact yet powerful, this new adapter line caters to the growing demand for miniaturized, high-frequency components in next-generation technologies.
