Category Insights

N-Type cable assemblies are precision-engineered coaxial connectors designed to handle high-frequency RF and microwave signals, typically up to 18 GHz or higher with special versions. Their threaded coupling mechanism ensures a secure and stable connection, which minimizes signal loss and reflection. Their rugged construction and excellent impedance control make them ideal for demanding RF environments such as base stations, radar systems, and microwave communication setups.
N-Type cable assemblies are widely used in telecommunications infrastructure, military communication systems, test and measurement setups, satellite systems, and industrial RF equipment. Their high power handling, low VSWR, and excellent shielding make them suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. They are especially favored in outdoor antennas, RF amplifiers, and situations where exposure to weather, vibration, or high RF loads is a concern.
To choose the correct N-Type assembly, start by identifying the frequency range and signal power required by your application. Then, consider cable type—options like RG-8, LMR-400, or semi-rigid cables vary in flexibility and loss characteristics. Also, decide between standard or precision N-Type connectors, and choose appropriate connector plating (nickel, silver, or stainless steel) based on environmental durability and signal performance. Lastly, ensure impedance (typically 50 Ω) matches your system.
N-Type connectors offer several key advantages: they have a robust threaded interface for secure connections; they can operate efficiently at higher frequencies (up to 11 GHz for standard and 18 GHz+ for precision versions); and they provide excellent shielding to minimize EMI. Their power handling capability is also superior to smaller connectors like SMA or BNC, making them ideal for medium- to high-power RF systems.
Proper care includes keeping the connector interfaces clean and dry—use a lint-free cloth and alcohol-based cleaner to remove contaminants. Always mate connectors by hand to avoid over-tightening and damaging threads. Use torque wrenches as recommended to ensure proper coupling force. Avoid excessive bending of the cable and use strain relief when mounting. Periodically inspect for signs of corrosion, wear, or pin damage, especially in outdoor or high-vibration installations.
