Here is my top 5 things to consider when choosing the coax connector. Frequency of Operation Frequency refers to the number of times a periodic action occurs in one second. The SI unit for measuring frequency is hertz. RF connectors are grouped into families, or series. Each series is designed to operate in a frequency […]
Many people find Coax Connectors confusing with so many different types it’s hard to know what they all look like and what they are for. With this guide I’m going to detail the top most common connector types and their uses to help you understand a little better: Connector type Frequency Limit Dielectric Comments […]
Here is a product that I’ll bet you have never seen before – Heat-detecting cable manufactured by Patol Ltd! This is a revolutionary, innovative product that acutely detects heat with no electronics or sensors. The cable itself is the sensor. Mainly used in nuclear reactors and other no-fail applications, it comes in Analogue & […]
I have always had a soft spot for Huber Suhner connectors. They are so well made and have such an extensive range. It is fair to say that Huber Suhner operates in the top end of the RF Connector market. However, it must be added some of their products are working at the very […]
Coaxial Cable was first developed back in the late 1800′s along with many innovations and is still very much with us today.
