6 GHz plug added to RF automotive portfolio

June 28, 2024 By Redding Traiger Leave a Comment

Amphenol RF is pleased to introduce the IP67 waterproof FAKRA generation 2 rear mount bulkhead straight plug into our expansive automotive portfolio. This connector is designed to accommodate the industry-standard RG-174 cable type which offers excellent signal integrity and low loss, and is optimal for outdoor use. This FAKRA plug is available in the universal Z code as well as all other key codes, and is compatible with all USCAR-compliant FAKRA on the market. FAKRA interconnects are ideal for automotive, telecommunications and industrial automation applications.

The rear mount bulkhead feature allows the connector to be mounted through a panel or enclosure wall, providing a stable and secure connection point. This design helps maintain the integrity of the connection by preventing dust, moisture and other contaminants from entering the system. The FAKRA plug ensures reliable, high-frequency data transmission up to 6 GHz which is critical for systems in the automotive, industrial and aerospace and defense sectors. This FAKRA interconnect uses standard hex crimp die sets to terminate the connector to the cable.

This unique 50 ohm FAKRA bulkhead plug joins a robust offering of FAKRA connectors and cable assemblies available as off-the-shelf solutions today. No other FAKRA interconnect on the market currently offers the same features and benefits.
