Tamper Resistant RF Connectors

Tamper Resistant RF Connectors

Electronic systems installed in public places require special protection to ensure that no data is lost or stolen, and RF connectors are an integral part of this ecosystem. Tamper-resistant RF connectors are designed with specific features to prevent unauthorized access, tampering, or interference with the RF connection. These connectors are particularly important in applications where security and integrity of the RF signal are critical. These front mount, rear fastening bulkhead tamper-resistant connectors offer the ideal solution for publicly accessible applications such as kiosks where sensitive electronics inside an enclosure could be damaged if accessed through everyday use or even by vandals.

For outdoor applications exposed to the elements, Amphenol RF also offers IP67/68-rated waterproof front mount bulkhead connectors with enhanced sealing capabilities.
