EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of IEC EN 60169-18 test. Provides key mating and performance information for a sub-miniature coaxial connector with adjacent polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) dielectric interface for use with flexible and semi-rigid RF cables. The connectors can be used up to a frequency of 35 GHz.
IEC EN 60169-18 is a standard for radio frequency connectors that specifies the design and performance requirements for coaxial connectors and screw connection with an inner diameter of 2,79 mm (0,110 inch) of the outer conductor. The connectors covered by this standard have a characteristic impedance of 50 ohms and are commonly known as SMA connectors.
The standard provides details on connectors' sizes, materials, and performance requirements, including their electrical and mechanical properties. The SMA connector is a threaded connector commonly used in microwave and RF applications, especially where a compact and robust connector is required.
IEC EN 60169-18 specifies the test methods and procedures that must be used to evaluate the performance of connectors, including insertion loss, voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR), and endurance tests. The standard also contains information on interpenetration of SMA connectors with other connectors.
SMA connectors are commonly used in applications such as telecommunications, military equipment, and aerospace. They are particularly useful in high frequency applications such as antenna systems, microwave filters and amplifiers.
Overall, the IEC EN 60169-18 standard provides a comprehensive set of specifications for coaxial connectors and screw connection with an inner diameter of 2,79 mm (0,110 inch) of the outer conductor, making it a valuable resource for manufacturers, engineers and others. brings. in the design and manufacture of high-frequency equipment.
