fixed pin connectors ideal for catV head-end applications. 

these connectors are available in multiple configurations 

including Bnc, f, Mcx, MPM, rg59, rg-6, 23 aWg, 

standard and quad shield.

twinax

 twinax connectors are used with 78 Ω and 95 Ω 

conductor cables and operates from 0-200 MHz. due to the 

improved shielding characteristic (>30dB), these connectors 

are used in balanced low level and high sensitivity circuits. 

twinax connectors feature keyway polarization to ensure 

system integrity and prevent signals from being mixed. the 
connectors are ideal for computer network applications and 
process equipment. 

AFi

board rf applications. it utilizes a proprietary configuration 
that allows for industry leading “float” to compensate for the 

axial and radial misalignment due to packaging tolerances. 

this industry-leading float results in a maximum misalignment 

allowed by the system of .030” (0,8 mm) radial and .040” (1,0 
mm) axial.

Amphe-10G  

the amphe-10g was designed as an alternative 

to fiber for high speed data transfers. using an oval contact 

system housed in a 38999 shell, end users can achieve the
