It is very important to remember that the only
max cable length of any twinax run
is 5000'.
- To extend beyond that length you must
have a repeater.

Description
- Twinax connectors are used with 78
and 95 ohm conductor cables and operates from
0-200 MHz.
- Due to the improved shielding characteristic (>30dB),
these connectors are used in balanced low level and
high sensitivity circuits.
- Meets applicable sections of MIL-C-3655
- Twinax connectors feature keyway polarization to
ensure system integrity and prevent signals from being mixed. Ideal for
computer network applications.
|
Features/Benefits
- Polarized key and keyway construction guarantees
correct dual contact mate.
- Twinax center pins can be crimped or soldered
to provide dual signals from one connector.
- Large threaded connectors designed for rugged
use.
- Crimp contacts ensures lower cost of installation.
- Clamp assembly allows quick assembly without
requiring special tools.
- 2 Stud bayonet design allows quick and easy
coupling.
