SMA

SMA connectors are precision connectors for microwave application up to 18 GHz and higher. the high mechanical strength, high durability and low VSWR indicate the characters. Together with semi-rigid cable hi-grade lines can be installed. SMA receptacles(launchers) used to provide transition to coax from waveguide, form MIC-paks, and from stripline or microstrip on PCB.
