Connectors Built For Flexible Cables

A line of high-frequency BMA connectors has been designed to fit semi-rigid cables and flexible cables with tape-wrapped Teflon and foamed polyethylene dielectrics. These interconnect have a high-integrity, push-on SMA interface suitable for dense modular connector arrays requiring fast and reliable connections. Many types of cables will fit the BMA connectors, including semi-rigid sizes from 0.0865" to 0.141" and flexible cables from 0.190" to 24" with crimp and solder attachment. A positive alignment interface is achieved with minimal insertion force per MIL-STD-348. The connectors accommodate a maximum of 0.060" axial and ±0.020" radial misalignment. Designed for dc to 22 GHz applications, these 50? connectors have a 1,000 VRMS dielectric withstanding voltage and 5,000 M? insulation resistance. Pricing of the BMA connectors is from $12.45 each.
