2.92mm Female End Launch Connector VST-CP292F02
P/N: VST-CP292F02
- For solderless edge-launch PCB transitions
- Open-slot structure for fast board installation
- Optimized launch geometry for low VSWR performance
- Compact design for dense RF test layouts
- Supports reliable measurements through 40 GHz
Engineering Note
The VST-CP292F02 is a precision 2.92mm female end launch connector designed for controlled microwave and RF board-edge transitions. Its structure is intended to launch directly into a microstrip-style PCB edge, and the recommended PCB layout clearly defines both the signal pad and grounding pad regions for repeatable board integration. With a compact body, 50 Ω interface, brass construction with gold finish, and a gold-plated beryllium copper center contact, this connector is well suited for microwave test boards, RF validation platforms, and compact high-frequency interconnect assemblies.
