Pasternack Launches New Field-Replaceable Connectors

Line of Field-Replaceable Connectors

November 10, 2022

Pasternack has released a new line of field-replaceable connectors, with frequency coverage to 65 GHz, that address a wide range of RF/microwave applications.

Pasternack’s new series of field-replaceable connectors feature SMA, 2.92, 2.4 and 1.85 mm connector options with many pin types, including glass bead feed-through or a tab contact, or a pin in a dielectric.

These connectors assist in easily replacing damaged connectors without accessing sealed components, and their EMI gaskets provide shielding against RF interference.  

Additionally, contacts for the field-replaceable connectors mate with five-pin diameters ranging from 0.009" to 0.036". Their two-hole and four-hole flange types make for easy assembly in hard-to-reach areas where flexibility is required.

“Pasternack’s new series of field-replaceable connectors offers superior electrical performance and is engineered for use in test of RF/microwave modules with greater susceptibility to EMI,” said Tim Galla, product line manager.

Pasternack’s new field-replaceable connectors are in-stock and ready for immediate shipment with no minimum order quantity.
