Amphenol RF SMP Cable Assemblies

Amphenol RF SMP Cable Assemblies are designed for high-performance RF and microwave applications that require a compact size, superior signal integrity, and quick mating. These assemblies feature a push-on or snap-on SMP interface on one or both ends, delivering reliable electrical performance up to 20GHz. The robust design enables high-frequency signal transmission with low loss and excellent repeatability, including in applications with demanding mechanical or environmental conditions. Engineers across multiple industries use SMP cable assemblies for high-density and high-frequency connectivity in systems where space and performance are essential. Typical applications include aerospace and defense systems, telecommunications infrastructure, and test and measurement equipment.

Amphenol RF SMP Cable Assemblies are often used to connect antennas, sensors, radios, and other RF devices, providing seamless data, voice, and video transmission with minimal interference. Featuring durable construction, a compact form factor, and exceptional electrical performance, these assemblies are well-suited for modern RF designs that demand reliable and efficient signal transmission. The assemblies offer versatility and ease of integration, making them ideal for engineers developing advanced communication systems and high-frequency test setups.
