Proper cable termination is critical for electrical performance and mechanical reliability. Each Amphenol RF connector is designed to work with specific cable types, and datasheets provide detailed instructions for crimping, soldering or clamping. Using the recommended tools and assembly process ensures proper engagement of the braid, dielectric and center conductor.

Improper termination can lead to poor return loss, intermittent connections, or even connector failure in the field. To help customers, Amphenol RF provides tooling guides and instructional videos for many connector series. This ensures that engineers and technicians can achieve repeatable, high-quality terminations in both prototype and production environments.
