Probe Cable Assemblies
Overview
Amphenol RF Probe Cable Assemblies are engineered to deliver reliable, repeatable performance in testing and diagnostic applications that demand precision and durability. These assemblies are designed to support a variety of test interfaces where non-permanent or minimal-contact connection to RF circuitry is required, such as in high-frequency signal path evaluations, board-level validation, or debugging environments.
These probe assemblies typically feature durable and flexible cable types terminated to high-frequency precision connectors on one end and spring-loaded or pogo-pin style contact interfaces on the other. Designed with low insertion force and compact profiles, they are ideal for probing densely packed PCBs or test fixtures where traditional connectorized interfaces may not be practical. Standard probe cable assemblies are rigorously tested for electrical performance and signal continuity, ensuring repeatable results across frequent usage cycles.
Features and Benefits
- Non-intrusive contact with test points allows repeated use without damaging circuit boards
- Compact, low-profile designs ideal for dense PCB layouts or limited access points
- Available with high-frequency connectors such as SMA and N-Type for optimal signal integrity
- Flexible cable options to accommodate routing in confined test environments
- Hi-pot and continuity tested to ensure electrical reliability in critical diagnostic workflows
- Field-replaceable contact tips on select models for extended product lifecycle
Key Technical Details
Amphenol RF’s probe cable assemblies are manufactured using high-quality RF coaxial cables and precision-machined connector interfaces. Assembly options may include semi-rigid or flexible cables with low insertion loss, and are ideal for use with test and measurement equipment requiring consistent electrical performance.
