Custom SMB Panel Mount Jack for Test Equipment

January 21, 2015

SSMA ConnectorThe design for this product resulted from a defense-contractor application that required a custom SMB jack coaxial connector to be attached to a piece of test equipment. The requirement included mechanical and electrical parameters as well as a pressure seal of the connector to the panel. RF Industries’ Aviel Electronics division designed a panel-mounted SMB jack with a threaded, passivated, stainless steel, type 303 body and hex nuts. A silicone, rubber O-ring design on the body seals the finished assembly for pressurization. Black polyether ether ketone thermoplastic polymer was utilized as the internal insulator with DuPont Teflon as the insulator for the SMB connector. The center contact is plated with mil-standard gold. All aspects of the design, manufacture and testing of the product were performed in the United States to comply with the customers’ sourcing requirements. www.avielelectronics.com
