High Frequency Connectivity with a Twist. Check Out SV Microwave's Latest Application Note Featuring the Quarterback Connector Line

West Palm Beach, FL, August 10, 2014 --(PR.com)-- SV Microwave has released a new Application Note for their latest line of connectors called the QuarterBack series. The line utilizes a quarter turn bayonet style coupling nut with a locking feature for standard SMP/SMPM interfaces. The QuarterBack connectors are ideal for high vibration and test applications that require a large number of mating cycles.

Features:
Quarter turn bayonet locking feature on standard SMP/SMPM interface; Low VSWR through 40 GHz(SMP)/65 GHz(SMPM); Female cable connector options available for all flexible cable types .086” diameter and smaller; All standard SMP/SMPM male connector options available upon request.

Applications:
Bench-top testing (PCB mount, cable connectors and adapters); High vibration environments; Applications requiring a high number of mating cycles; Military and Commercial options available.

Benefits:
Low insertion/extraction forces, compared to standard full detent SMP and SMPM, mean less torque on board mount connector solder joints during mating and demating; Spring loaded positive mating feature allows excellent electrical performance even in extreme vibration environments; Low mating forces allow for more mating cycles without failure compared to full detent SMP and SMPM.
