3-GHz AUDIO-VIDEO CONNECTOR
 |
Gold or nickel-plated 3-GHz “F” connectors can be used for CATV and security systems. These high performance connectors are designed to provide a clean connection point for wired electronics to wall outlets, allowing cables to be hidden within the walls or cabinetry. According to the company, the F connectors are built to provide superior signal quality with minimal noise for today’s AV systems, and are compatible with all of the company’s modular faceplates and multimedia panels.

MICRO RF ASSEMBLIES
 |
These micro RF coax cable assemblies (RF081, 0.81-mm OD; RF113, .045-in OD) are designed for low-profile panel-to-board and cable-to-board applications. They are especially suitable for wireless handheld devices or RF/antenna applications where space is limited. RF081 assemblies are available with MHF1 micro RF connectors for 2.5-mm mated height, or MHF3 for 1.5-mm mated height. The RF113 series is available with MHF1 micro RF connectors. Both assemblies offer SMA bulkhead connections on the second end in both standard and reverse polarity for panel-to-board/antenna applications.
