RF connectors can be far and near in people’s lives, but in our daily life, they are inseparable from RF connectors. They play a major role in our daily lives, so we can learn more and Learn about RF connectors.     In addition to the requirements of general characteristics, RF coaxial connectors also have a very key requirement that they must be good in touch, reliable in work, and convenient in maintenance. The reliability of the work of the radio frequency connector will immediately endanger all the normal work of the airport power circuit, and even the misfortune of all the hosts. Therefore, the host power circuit has very strict requirements for the quality and stability of the radio frequency connector.     Therefore, the high quality and high reliability of the radio frequency connector make it widely used in aviation, aerospace, national defense and security and other military system software.     There are three common classifications of radio frequency connectors: appearance design, structure, and main purpose.     1. Appearance design     Circular RF connector: mostly used in military equipment (such as airlines, aerospace)     Rectangular RF connector: simple structure, mostly used for printed pcb circuit boards of electronic products      2. Structure     The composition of the fixed-end radio frequency connector (female contact-power socket) and the free end radio frequency connector (male contact-power plug). The power socket is fixed on the power consumption component according to its square (circle) plate (some or welding methods are selected). The power plug is generally connected to the cable, and the power plug and the power socket are connected according to the docking screw cap.     Structural features of radio frequency connector: resistant to natural environment, interface type (rapid) docking, multi-button (error insertion prevention), touch body     The three basic elements of the radio frequency connector are composed of the shell, the conductor and the insulator, the contact body and the transmission line riveting butt, (single root is easy to solve the common fault).     1) Shell     Refers to the housing, connection screw cap, and end fittings of the socket plug.     The function of the case is to protect the internal components of the radio frequency connector such as the conductor, the insulator, and the contact body (collectively called the pin socket) from being damaged. The precise positioning key slot on the top ensures the precise positioning of the power plug and the power socket. The connecting screw cap is used to connect and separate the power plug socket. The end fittings are used to maintain the connection between the power line and the touch body line from being damaged and to fix the cable.     The shell has the function of a certain magnet...

    Abstract: The rapid development of mobile communications has increased the demand for RF coaxial cables. Therefore, analyzing the attenuation factors of coaxial cables is of great significance to our scientific decision-making.     This article focuses on the analysis of factors that affect the attenuation of RF coaxial cables, including raw materials, standing wave cable structure and temperature. I. Overview     Attenuation is one of the most important parameters of radio frequency cables. It reflects the loss of electromagnetic energy during cable transmission.     The attenuation of the cable indicates the degree of power transmission or voltage loss when the cable is working in the traveling wave state.     The greater the attenuation of the cable, the more serious the signal loss, and the worse the transmission efficiency of the cable. If the total attenuation of the cable is equal to 3dB, it means that the current or voltage amplitude of the signal bath after the cable is transmitted is reduced by about 30%, and the signal power Decrease by 50%.     Therefore, the attenuation of the cable is a very important indicator. This is especially true for long-length transmission. In order to reduce the attenuation of the cable, a considerable cost must be drawn economically.     When choosing a cable, it cannot be considered that the lower the attenuation, the better, but this index and other factors must be considered comprehensively to select an economical and suitable cable.      2. Overview of factors affecting the attenuation of RF coaxial cables     RF cables are mainly composed of conductors, insulation, sheaths and armors. Among them, the conductors play the guiding role of electrical signals. Insulation is the medium on which electrical signals are transmitted. Sheath and armor are necessary for conductors and insulation. The protection of the cable makes the finished cable endure the effects of various use environments.     Therefore, the main factors affecting RF coaxial cables can be summarized into three categories: raw materials, cable structure and temperature.     1. Raw materials     1.1 Insulation layer     Insulation is the medium for radio frequency signal transmission. The material and structure of the insulation are required to ensure the lowest possible loss of the cable, and it must also have sufficient mechanical strength to keep the inner and outer conductors in the coaxial position. The radio frequency cable insulation can be divided into solid, air and semi-core. Air insulation.     The influence of insulation on the attenuation is smaller, but its influence continues to increase as the frequency increases. When it reaches the 2GHz frequency band, the attenuation of the medium cannot be ignored.     Since the insulation layer basically adopts a foamed structure, f...

Ensure electrical characteristics through mechanical structure. The radio frequency coaxial connector is a mechatronic product, which is essentially different from other low-frequency connectors. The quality of the mechanical structure directly determines the quality of the product.     3. The processing method of the part. The radio frequency coaxial connector is mainly processed by a lathe, and it is difficult to automatically assemble because of many manual operations. Therefore, the production cycle is longer than other connectors.     4. Product updates are slow. Coaxial RF connectors appeared relatively late, and current updates are relatively slow. There are several major signals in the market.     5. Production technology. Radio frequency coaxial connectors are labor-intensive products with a certain technical content, which require high production capacity of manufacturers.     6. Reasons for failure. The failure modes and mechanisms of RF coaxial connectors are complex, and professional RF engineers are required to perform failure analysis.

    A RF coaxial connector is an electrical connector designed to work at radio frequencies in the megahertz range. RF connectors are often used with coaxial cables and are designed to maintain the shielding provided by the coaxial design. A better model can also minimize the change in impedance of the transmission line at the connection. The following mainly explains the definition of RF radio frequency coaxial connectors and how to select and features!     Features of RF coaxial connectors     1. Wide variety of specifications: more than 20 international general series, more varieties and specifications.     2. The part processing is mainly turning machine processing, and there are many manual assembly operations, which makes it difficult to carry out automated assembly.     3. Relying on mechanical structure to ensure electrical characteristics, it is a mechatronic product, which is essentially different from other low-frequency connectors.     4. Product reliability, failure modes and failure mechanisms are complex.     5. Slow product update time.     Definition of RF coaxial connector     The radio frequency connector is defined as a separable component that is usually installed on a cable or equipment for electrical connection of a transmission line system.
