NDX Connectors
75 Ohm Dual-Shielded, Snap-In Interface for CATV Applications up to 18 GHz
Overview
NDX™ connectors deliver a more robust, user-friendly alternative to the traditional Type F interface. This connector system is engineered for next-generation CATV infrastructure and is engineered to support high-bandwidth applications up to 18 Gpbs while simplifying installation and improving long-term reliability.
NDX connectors feature an ultra-reliable mating interface which ultimately results in reduced cost of ownership for MSOs and requiring less technician visits to customer sites and more successful self-installs. Built for evolving network demands, the NDX platform is optimized for current DOCSIS 3.1 systems and future-ready for emerging 5G and IoT technologies.
