APC N Adapters

Amphenol RF’s APC N adapters provide a high-precision, genderless solution for interconnecting APC N with both like and between-series interfaces—such as APC N, APC 3.5, and N‑Type. These adapters support straight barrel and bulkhead configurations, ensuring flexible integration in test, telecom, and instrumentation setups.

Engineered for RF accuracy, each adapter is machined and plated to strict tolerances, delivering exceptional performance up to the APC N connector’s rated frequency. These components are ideal for lab instrumentation, microwave test systems, and modular RF applications needing repeatability and low insertion loss.

Features and Benefits

• Comprehensive Interface Coverage – Includes in-series APC N–APC N and between-series adapters to APC 3.5 and N‑Type.
• High‑Frequency Precision – Maintains RF performance to connector frequency limits (typically DC–11 GHz or higher, cable dependent).
• Bulkhead & Barrel Options – Straight and panel-mount bulkhead styles for rack and enclosure applications.
• Gold-Plated, Machined Build – Provides robust physical connection, low VSWR, and consistent bench performance.
• Gender-Saver & Connector Protector – Adapters double as gender changers and connector savers in test environments.

Applications

• Test & Measurement – Ideal for VNAs, signal generators, and instrumentation requiring flexible gender/savings.
• Microwave Communication Systems – APC N–N and APC N–APC 3.5 adapters preserve microwave channel fidelity.
• Telecom & Infrastructure – Rack-mounted bulkhead adapters enable clean ACS panel interconnects.
• Aerospace & Defense – Precision RF connections in high-density test or vehicle systems requiring repeatability.
