C-Type Adapters

Amphenol RF’s C‑Type adapters include versatile in-series and between-series styles, enabling seamless coupling between C‑Type and common connectors like N‑Type, BNC, SMA, TNC, and UHF. These adapters feature a secure two-stud bayonet coupling that ensures reliable connections in field conditions, ideal for applications requiring quick and dependable mating.

Engineered for durability and precision, C‑Type adapters maintain low VSWR performance up to 11 GHz in 50 Ω systems and perform up to ~300 MHz in 75 Ω setups. Their weather-resistant construction makes them suitable for harsh environments, including industrial sites, military platforms, and outdoor telecom equipment.
