About AMPHENOL

Amphenol is a global manufacturer of interconnect systems, with a product portfolio that includes RF coaxial connectors, cable assemblies, and related components. The company was founded in 1932 and has since expanded through both organic growth and acquisitions, establishing manufacturing and engineering facilities in multiple regions. Amphenol's RF division, often referenced as Amphenol RF, focuses on coaxial connectors and adapters for radio frequency and microwave applications. These products are used in industries such as telecommunications, aerospace, defense, test and measurement, and industrial equipment. The connectors are designed to meet various industry standards, including MIL-STD and QPL requirements, and are available in a range of impedance values, frequency ratings, and termination styles.

3G Electric supplies Amphenol RF connectors, including N-Type, HN-Type, and other coaxial interfaces. The inventory includes male and female connectors with clamp-on, crimp-on, and right-angle configurations. Finishes such as silver, nickel, and white bronze are available, and many models support frequencies up to 11 GHz with 50 ohm impedance. These connectors are used in antenna feeds, test equipment, wireless infrastructure, and other RF signal transmission systems. The product line also includes splitters and adapters, providing a comprehensive selection for coaxial cable assemblies and system integration.

Amphenol RF connectors are engineered for consistent signal integrity and mechanical durability. Key specifications include operating temperature ranges from -65°C to 165°C, minimum mating cycles of 500, and contact materials such as gold-plated brass. Insulators are often made of PTFE, and some models feature silicone gaskets for environmental sealing. The connectors are compatible with standard crimp tools, such as the CTL-11, ensuring proper installation. 3G Electric supports this line by offering global availability, technical documentation, and application support for engineers and procurement teams. Whether specifying components for a new RF system or maintaining existing equipment, customers can source Amphenol connectors through 3G Electric's distribution network.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about AMPHENOL from 3G Electric.

What are the key specifications of Amphenol N-Type coaxial connectors?

Amphenol N-Type connectors typically feature 50 ohm impedance and support frequencies up to 11 GHz. They are available in male and female configurations with clamp-on, crimp-on, or right-angle terminations. Finishes include silver, nickel, and white bronze. Many models are QPL approved and meet MIL-STD requirements. Operating temperature ranges from -65°C to 165°C, and they are rated for a minimum of 500 mating cycles. Contact materials often include gold-plated brass, with PTFE insulators for stable electrical performance.

What is the difference between clamp-on and crimp-on Amphenol N-Type connectors?

Clamp-on Amphenol N-Type connectors use a compression mechanism to secure the cable center conductor and shield, allowing for field assembly without specialized crimping tools. Crimp-on connectors require a crimping tool to attach the connector to the cable, providing a more permanent and consistent termination. Crimp-on designs are often used in high-volume production, while clamp-on offers flexibility for field repairs. Both types are available in 50 ohm impedance and support frequencies up to 11 GHz.

Are Amphenol HN-Type connectors compatible with N-Type connectors?

Amphenol HN-Type connectors are not directly compatible with N-Type connectors due to differences in interface dimensions. HN-Type connectors are larger and designed for higher voltage applications, typically supporting frequencies up to 4 GHz. They feature a 50 ohm impedance and are often used in RF signal transmission where higher power handling is required. While both are coaxial connectors, they are not intermateable. Always verify the connector series and impedance before mating.

What tools are required for installing Amphenol crimp-on N-Type connectors?

Amphenol crimp-on N-Type connectors require a compatible crimp tool, such as the CTL-11, to properly crimp the ferrule onto the cable shield and the contact onto the center conductor. The specific tool depends on the cable type and connector size. It is important to use the correct die set and follow the manufacturer's crimping instructions to achieve a reliable termination. Improper crimping can lead to signal loss or mechanical failure. 3G Electric can provide tooling recommendations based on the selected connector.

What finishes are available for Amphenol N-Type connectors?

Amphenol N-Type connectors are available with several plating finishes, including silver, nickel, and white bronze. Silver plating offers excellent conductivity and is often used in high-frequency applications. Nickel plating provides good corrosion resistance and durability. White bronze is a non-magnetic finish that is suitable for applications where magnetic interference is a concern. The choice of finish depends on the specific environmental and electrical requirements of the application.

What is the operating temperature range for Amphenol RF connectors?

Many Amphenol RF connectors, including N-Type models, have an operating temperature range of -65°C to 165°C. This wide range allows them to be used in harsh environments, from extreme cold to high heat. The temperature rating is determined by the materials used, such as PTFE insulators and silicone gaskets, which maintain their properties across this range. Always refer to the specific product datasheet for exact temperature limits, as they may vary by model.
