Mini-UHF Connectors
Compact threaded RF connectors offering UHF-sized performance in smaller spaces
Overview
Amphenol RF’s Mini‑UHF series delivers the legacy UHF interface in a miniaturized 3/8-24 threaded format, optimized for tight-space applications without sacrificing signal capabilities. These connectors maintain excellent RF performance up to 2.5 GHz while reducing size, weight, and cost—making them ideal for installations in portable, embedded, and broadcast systems.
With both cable plug and jack options, plus PCB and panel mountable receptacles, Mini‑UHF connectors offer versatile integration paths and reliable, threaded coupling to ensure stable connectivity in compact environments.
