43M-SCF38-E01
4.3-10 Male Connector for 3/8" Coaxial Cable, Straight

Rev : B | Rev date : 08 Oct 2021
Radio Frequency Systems line of high performance coaxial cable connectors are designed specifically to provide the highest quality connector-cable interface while simplifying and speeding up the attachment of connectors to CELLFLEX® coaxial cables. RFS Technologies connectors are fully tested for mechanical and electrical compliance specifications. They are available in all popular cable sizes in a variety of mating interfaces. The 4.3-10 connector is an innovative, space-saving RF connection meeting all requirements even under the most severe environmental conditions and not relying on coupling nut torque.

FEATURES / BENEFITS

  • Ultra high PIM performance i.e. reduced interference leading to high customer satisfaction
  • Two-piece design i.e. visual inspection of interlocking leads to improved installation security
  • OMNI FIT™ concept i.e. streamlined order management and reduced stock level
  • Watertight sealing in mated and unmated condition, i.e. reduced efforts during installation and improved security during operation
  • Tri metal alloy plating i.e. extreme resistance against corrosion even under hardest climatic and environmental circumstances
  • Multi-thread (Tristart) design i.e. simplified and accelerated tightening process
  • RoHS (EU) and CRoHS (China) compliant i.e. can be used on a global basis
