2.92mm 43 Ohm PCB Compression Connector with Slot VST-CPM292F-11
P/N: VST-CPM292F-11
- For low-impedance PCB compression launches
- 43 ohm design for reinforced center contact
- Compression slot for controlled board contact
- Screw-secured mount for stable grounding
- Supports specialized measurements through 40 GHz
Engineering Note
The VST-CPM292F-11 is a precision 2.92mm 43 Ω PCB compression connector with slot designed for specialized microwave board transitions. Unlike the standard 50 Ω version, this model uses a 43 Ω structure with a larger center contact geometry, making it suitable for custom launch conditions where that impedance target is required. Its compression-mount slot interface is intended for controlled board installation, while the DC to 40 GHz operating range and VSWR ≤ 1.30 support compact high-frequency interconnect applications in fixtures, evaluation boards, and custom microwave assemblies.

Target Applications
Specialized Microwave Boards
Suitable for microwave boards that require a non-standard 43 Ω compression-style transition rather than a conventional 50 Ω launch.
RF Fixtures and Validation Platforms
Useful for validation platforms and RF fixtures where compression mounting and slotted geometry are required in a 43 Ω structure.
Custom PCB Launch Designs
A practical option for compact high-frequency interconnect designs where center-contact size and impedance target differ from the standard 50 Ω version.
