1.6-5.6 Connectors
Space-saving 75 Ω push‑pull RF connectors designed for high-density broadcast and telecom assemblies
Overview
Amphenol RF’s 1.6‑5.6 connector series delivers a compact, efficient solution for applications where panel space is limited and reliable signal transmission is essential. Featuring a push‑pull or optional threaded coupling mechanism, these 75 Ω connectors are engineered for fast mating and secure connections. With a performance threshold up to 1 GHz, the 1.6‑5.6 series is widely used in broadcast, telecom and LAN infrastructure.
Designed and certified to IEC 169‑13, DIN 47295, DIN 47297, NFC 93‑570 and CECC 22230 standards, these connectors offer dependable mechanical and electrical performance. Their crimp terminations simplify cable assembly, while precision-machined bodies ensure stable impedance and low return loss during operation.
Features and Benefits
- Miniature push‑pull or threaded coupling options enable quick and reliable connections
- Crimp‑crimp termination streamlines cable assembly and secures contacts
