UHF Connectors

Rugged RF solutions ideal for low-frequency, non-critical applications

Overview

Amphenol RF’s UHF connectors are robust, low-frequency interconnect solutions designed for applications where reliable performance is essential, but precision electrical performance is not a primary concern. With a coarse thread coupling mechanism and simple construction, these connectors are suitable for a variety of communication systems, particularly in military, industrial and amateur radio setups.

These connectors operate best in environments that demand mechanical durability over high-frequency precision. Amphenol RF offers a wide range of UHF plug and jack configurations engineered for easy assembly and consistent connectivity, often terminated to flexible cable types commonly used in base station and mobile radio equipment.

Features and Benefits
  • Durable threaded coupling ensures secure mating
  • Low-cost option for general-purpose applications
  • Supports flexible cable terminations
  • Available in plug and jack formats
  • Suitable for non-precision RF transmission
Key Technical Details
