FAQs
What are Type N connectors used for?
Type N connectors are threaded coaxial connectors commonly used for RF applications, known for being durable and weatherproof. They are available in male and female gender options and fit a wide range of coax cables, including LMR and RG series types. Their threaded coupling design makes them well suited for outdoor, industrial, and test environments where a secure, weather-resistant connection is required.
What attachment methods are available for Type N connectors?
Type N connectors are available with crimp, clamp, solder, clamp/solder, or crimp/solder attachment methods. Attachment method selection depends on the installation tools available, the coax cable type being terminated, and the durability requirements of the finished connection, with crimp methods often preferred for volume production and solder methods for high-reliability terminations.
What mount types are available for Type N connectors?
Type N connectors are available with bulkhead, chassis mount, 2-hole flange mount, or 4-hole flange mount options, in straight or right angle body styles. Bulkhead and chassis mount versions are commonly used to pass RF connections through equipment panels or enclosures, while flange mount options support secure panel integration in test and communication equipment.
What coax cable types are compatible with Type N connectors?
Type N connectors are designed to fit a wide range of coax cables, including Belden 9913, LMR-100, LMR-195, LMR-200, LMR-240, LMR-300, LMR-400, LMR-400 UltraFlex, LMR-400-75, LMR-400-LLPL, LMR-400-DB, LMR-400-UF, LMR-500, LMR-600, LMR-600-LLPL, RG6, RG8, RG9, RG11, RG58, RG59, RG174, RG188, RG213, RG214, RG316, RG8X, RG225, RG393, RG144, RG216, RG215, RG141, RG303, and many more cables. This broad compatibility allows engineers and procurement teams to standardize on Type N connectors across multiple coax cable types used in RF and telecommunications systems.
What impedance options are available for Type N connectors?
Type N RF connectors are available with an impedance of 50 or 75 Ohms. Matching connector impedance to the coax cable and system impedance is critical for minimizing signal reflection and maintaining RF performance across the connection.
What are Type N RF load terminations used for?
Type N male and female RF load terminations are designed for test, instrumentation, research labs, telecommunications, Wi-Fi, and cellular communication industries. These terminations operate at a maximum frequency of 3, 6, or 12 GHz with 50 Ohm impedance, a maximum input power (CW) of 2 Watts, and a maximum VSWR of 1.1:1 or 1.2:1, and can withstand temperatures from -55 to 125 or 165 degrees C.
What accessories are available to protect Type N connectors?
ShowMeCables offers dust caps featuring a retaining chain and a nickel-plated brass body to protect Type N or UHF female connectors from contamination, moisture, and other environmental factors that can degrade performance. A Type N female chassis-mount receptacle with a nickel-plated brass body is also available for panel-integrated applications.
