RF Switching Connectors

Amphenol RF’s RF switching connectors provide a robust, cost-effective method for testing RF circuits without the need to physically disconnect and reconnect cables. These connectors integrate a mechanical switch function that allows signal continuity during normal operation and redirects signals during test procedures.

Designed for durability and ease of use, RF switching connectors are available in several industry-standard interfaces such as SMA and MCX. They are ideal for PCB-mounted designs in compact environments where maintaining signal integrity and maximizing board space is essential.
