TWINAX Connector Series
Twinax connectors are used with 78 Ω and 95 Ω 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.
