18 GHz SMA Female Single-Channel RF Rotary Joint for RF Test Fixtures VST-A-RXSFSF-01

P/N: VST-A-RXSFSF-01

– SMA interface fits common RF lab setups
– 18 GHz range suits fixture-level rotation
– IP40 housing supports protected bench assemblies
– Low torque reduces load on moving stages
– Practical option for SMA measurement continuity

Engineering Note
VST-A-RXSFSF-01 is the SMA Female option in this rotary-joint set, built for DC–18 GHz RF lab motion rather than 40–65 GHz mmWave positioning. Its value is practical integration: SMA fixture compatibility, IP40 protection, ≤0.05 N·m torque, and ≥5,000,000-rotation life for protected bench fixtures, moving measurement stages, and lower-frequency radar lab assemblies that do not need higher-frequency 2.92 mm, 2.4 mm, or 1.85 mm interfaces.

Target Applications

SMA RF Lab Positioners

SMA Female rotary path for lab fixtures that rotate antennas, modules, or test heads up to 18 GHz.

Protected Bench Measurement Stages

IP40 rotary interface for controlled indoor test setups where protected housing and repeatable motion matter.

Lower-Frequency Radar Fixture Motion

Practical SMA rotating link for radar lab fixtures that do not require 40 GHz or 65 GHz interface classes.

Rotating SMA Device Fixtures

Single-channel RF continuity for SMA-connected DUT holders, calibration brackets, or fixture arms under motion.
