Leader-mw | Introduction to 2.4M-2.4M Adapter |
2.4mm Male-to-Male Coaxial Adapter is a critical precision component enabling direct interconnection between two devices or instruments equipped with 2.4mm female ports. Operating effectively up to 50 GHz, it supports demanding millimeter-wave applications in R&D, testing, and high-frequency communications like 5G/6G, satellite, and radar systems.
Key Specifications & Features:
- Connector Type: Features standardized 2.4mm interfaces (IEEE 287-compliant) on both ends.
- Gender Configuration: Male connectors (center pin) on both sides, designed to mate with female jacks.
- Performance: Maintains excellent signal integrity with low insertion loss (<0.4 dB typical) and tight VSWR (<1.3:1) at 50 GHz. Precision engineering ensures consistent 50 Ω impedance.
- Construction:Center contacts are typically gold-plated beryllium copper for durability and low resistance. Outer bodies use brass or stainless steel with corrosion-resistant plating. PTFE or similar low-loss dielectric minimizes dispersion.
Applications: Essential for linking VNAs, signal analyzers, frequency extenders, or other test equipment directly, reducing cable dependencies in calibration benches and high-accuracy measurement setups.
Critical Notes:
- Requires careful handling to avoid damaging delicate male pins.
- Torque wrenches (typically 8 in-lbs) are recommended for secure, repeatable connections.
- Performance relies on maintaining mechanical tolerances; contamination or misalignment degrades high-frequency response.
