QMA Connector Reduces Installation Time

Reducing the time and difficulties associated with field installation, the RQA-5010-8X solderless right-angle QMA connector employs an SMA internal configuration with a snap-on interface that allows for mating and un-mating without the use of tools. The connector features a sliding snap-lock mechanism that works by sliding the shell back and releasing to lock both connectors in place. After mating, the connector is rotatable a full 360°. Mating with all QMA jacks, the component delivers reliable electrical performance up to 6 GHz. Additionally, the RQA-5010-X terminates 0.240” diameter cables including Times Microwave LMR-240, Andrew Cinta CNT-240, CommScope WBC-240, and Belden RF 240. Other features include tri-metal plated brass bodies, Teflon insulation, spring copper alloy outer contacts, and gold-plated inner contacts. RF INDUSTRIES INC., San Diego, CA. (800) 233-1728.
