Different types of connectors and their installation methods have their own advantages and applicability in different application scenarios. This article will introduce the connection and installation methods of common RF connectors

Definition of the SP connector

The SP11, SP13, SP17, SP21 and SP29 series are IP68 waterproof connectors with threaded connections.

They have the same electrical specifications as the SY series and are designed for waterproof, indoor and outdoor applications, as well as underwater harsh environments.

It is designed for applications that require quick locking and frequent mating and unplugging. These connectors can be used for cable-to-cable and cable-to-panel mount connections.

Each side can be made into male or female contacts (plug or socket versions). Cable connectors and panel connectors are currently available with IP68 sealing caps. Threaded coupling connectors have IP68 integrity when mated for reliable operation indoors, outdoors, and in harsh environments with UV light and moisture.

Generally, the environmental testing criteria performed during the design and qualification of IP68 connectors is
