RF switching coaxial connector
ITT Interconnect Solutions has developed a switching coaxial connector for customers that need to verify antenna or circuit board performance. Designated LPC CP1/CP2 and detailed in a recent application note, the connector delivers an effective solution to passive switching between an internal circuit and external device such as test equipment, or an antenna.
Critical attributes that the connector fulfills for customers include high reliability RF switching, low signal loss of under 0.3dB, a minimum mating cycle count of 12,000 and return loss VSWR of 1.2:1 at 2GHz. With a frequency range up to 2GHz, the connector is ideal for a variety of applications including mobile phones, two-way radio, military radio and wireless modems.
