Tyco Electronics offers a
comprehensive range of
7-16 Connectors to suit
today’s challenging Wireless
Infrastructure Market. This
market demands reliable,
intermodulation sensitive
connectors that accommo-
date higher power.
Tyco Electronics 7-16
Coaxial Connector Series
provides reliable, intermod-
ulation- minimizing solutions
that also provide a logical
alternative to N Series con-
nectors in high power appli-
cations where a more
rugged interface design is
required. Typical examples
of this include transmitter to
antenna links and channel
switching networks.
The 7-16 Series conforms to
CECC 22190 and IEC 169-4
specification standards and
has a 2.7kV working voltage
at the connector interface
and maximum power
handling capability of 4kW.
The series has been
designed for these
demanding environments
and can withstand a mini-
mum of 500 mating cycles.
Popular RG cable sizes are
covered in both
solder/clamp and crimp
attachment styles. Two
piece combination connec-
tors adapt to straight or
right-angle configurations,
minimizing the number of
different part codes needed
by the customer. Series N to
7-16 between series
adapters facilitate the transi-
tion between system inter-
faces as well as providing a
test interface.
The increased customer
demand for greater channel
capacity combined with
increased sensitivity of
receivers has exposed the
IMD (Intermodulation
Distortion) phenomenon.
To address this problem
7-16 Connectors have been
designed to reduce
IMD through the use of non-
ferrous base materials and
by silver plating of the elec-
trical path. The proprietary
White Bronze plating tech-
nique is standard, providing
high corrosion resistance,
low porosity, scratch
resistance, low RF loss
and a non-magnetic finish.
Incorporation of hex-knurl
coupling nuts allow for
hand or wrench tightening
of connectors, depending
upon the application.
Tyco Electronics is a
global ISO 9001 certified
manufacturer and maintains
a complete in-house
Intermodulation Testing
facility. Connector part
numbers shown form just a
small part of the extensive
interconnect package that
Tyco Electronics offers for
the professional wireless
and telecom markets.
