SMA Connectors

San-tron offers a range of SMA connectors and phase-matched adapters for a variety of applications, from DC to 40 GHz. SMA connectors can be set for specific frequency ranges, depending upon the requirements. They are available as male and female cable connectors in crimp or solder versions (with San-tron's unique torque-proof, safety-lock coupling nuts for added reliability) for a number of different cables, and for SMA receptacles in bulkhead, press-fit, and panel-mount configurations. Panel-mount receptacles can be supplied in 3/8-1/2-inch square flange sizes as well as in 2-hole versions, with or without gasket seals.
San-tron's SMA receptacles feature solder-cup, post, or tab contact terminations. The SMA lineup also includes newly developed eSMA plugs and jacks for use with TFlex cables, with outstanding performance through 20 GHz (see Cable Assemblies). Additionally, San-tron supplies a variety of field-replaceable SMA connectors for use with 0.012-, 0.015-, 0.018-, and 0.020-inch diameter pin sizes. They feature 1/2-inch square, 3/8-inch square, and 2-hole flanges, and are available with or without EMI gaskets and ground planes.
