Connectronics Inc., a designer and manufacturer of standard and custom RF connectors, adapters and microwave connectors, has expanded its product line with the launch of the SMP bullet — a subminiature push-on adapter system designed to ensure reliable RF performance, especially in board-to-board or other gang-mating applications.

The SMP bullet provides high-density solutions, supporting both board-to-board and cable-to-board connections. Available for fixed and spring-loaded applications, it accommodates tolerance and misalignment issues during mating, prevents signal degradation and ensures consistent RF performance

The new adapter delivers a range of features where precision and reliability are critical. Its high-density, small-form-factor design supports dense interconnects in limited space, while providing versatile board-to-board and cable-to-board connectivity. Each bullet is designed to minimize gaps and compensate for axial and radial misalignment, ensuring consistently repeatable voltage standing wave ratio under compression and reliable connections engineered to compensate for some movement.

Like all Connectronics’ SMP adapters, the SMP bullet supports frequencies up to 40 GHz and even higher in some extended designs, making it ideal for demanding RF applications, such as aerospace, telecommunications and testing and measurement equipment.
