SMP Male Full Detent Threaded Connector DC–40 GHz VST-CPSMPM-16
P/N: VST-CPSMPM-16
- For secure threaded RF connections
- Full-detent SMP interface for reliable blind mating
- Stainless steel body for durable performance
- Well suited to modular RF and microwave systems
- Supports precision signal paths through 40 GHz
Engineering Note
The VST-CPSMPM-16 is a compact SMP male full detent threaded connector for secure RF and microwave interconnect applications. Its full detent mating structure and 10-48UNS-2A threaded interface provide more stable mechanical retention than a simple snap-on style connection, making it suitable for assemblies where mating reliability is important. With a 50 Ω design supporting DC to 40 GHz, VSWR ≤ 1.20, and a stainless steel outer conductor with passivated finish, this connector is well suited for compact microwave modules, RF fixtures, and threaded SMP interconnect structures.
