IP-Rated Waterproof RF Connectors

IP-rated waterproof RF connectors are ideal for outdoor applications or wet applications and are designed to prevent the ingress of water or fluid into the connector and the enclosure or panel to which the connector may be mounted. IP-67 or better ingress protection is achieved using specialized o-rings and gaskets surrounding the dielectric and center contact. Bulkhead and panel mounted connectors achieve a watertight seal preventing water from leaking into an enclosure or housing. This prevents damage of costly internal components.

Waterproof IP-rated connectors offered by Amphenol RF are identified as IP-67 or IP-68 (customer specific). IP-67 RF connectors are protected against the effects of temporary submersion in water and are tested to survive a depth of 1-meter for 30 minutes.
