The SMA-KY3 connector is designed with precision and performance in
mind. Its 50Ω impedance ensures efficient signal transmission
across a broad frequency range from DC to 18 GHz. Whether you’re
building communication networks, radar systems, or test setups,
this connector delivers consistent results. Its robust construction
withstands extreme temperatures, from -65°C to +165°C, making it
suitable for demanding environments. Additionally, the SMA-KY3 can
endure 500 mating cycles, ensuring longevity and reliability.
When it comes to signal integrity, the SMA-KY3 shines. Its low VSWR
(Voltage Standing Wave Ratio) of ≤1.05 + 0.1f (GHz) minimizes
reflections, crucial for maintaining clean signals. Whether you’re
connecting antennas, amplifiers, or RF modules, this connector
ensures minimal loss. The dielectric withstanding voltage of 1000 V
adds an extra layer of safety. From flexible cable applications
(0~12.4 GHz) to semi-rigid setups (0~18 GHz), the SMA-KY3 adapts
seamlessly.
Impedance (Z): The SMA-KY3 operates at 50Ω impedance, ensuring
efficient signal transmission and compatibility with standard RF
systems.
Frequency Range:
With flexible cables, it covers frequencies from DC up to 12.4 GHz.
This versatility makes it suitable for various applications,
including wireless communication and instrumentation.
For semi-rigid cables, the range extends up to 18 GHz, catering to
high-frequency needs.
Voltage Rating: The connector can handle up to 500 V(rms),
providing safety and reliability in demanding environments.
Operating Temperature Range: From a chilly -65°C to a scorching
+165°C, the SMA-KY3 remains robust and functional. Whether in
Arctic conditions or near industrial machinery, it won’t let you
down.
VSWR (Voltage Standing Wave Ratio):
VSWR measures how efficiently the connector transfers energy. The
SMA-KY3 achieves a maximum VSWR of 1.10 + 0.025×f(GHz). Lower VSWR
means less signal loss and better performance.
Translation: Your signals stay clean, even at high frequencies.
Contact Resistance: Center Conductor: ≤3 mΩ, Outer Conductor: ≤2
mΩ. These low resistance values ensure minimal signal loss and
reliable connections.
Insulation Resistance: With an insulation resistance of ≥5000MΩ,
the SMA-KY3 maintains signal integrity even in challenging
conditions.
Durability: It can withstand 500 mating cycles. So, whether you’re
plugging and unplugging frequently or leaving it connected for
extended periods, it’s up to the task.
Material Composition:
Center Contact: Beryllium copper (Gold plated over Nickel) –
Ensures good conductivity.
Body, Coupling Nut: Brass (Gold plated over Nickel) – Sturdy and
corrosion-resistant.
Insulator: PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) – Provides electrical
isolation and thermal stability.
Weight: A mere 4.2 grams. Lightweight but heavy on performance!
