2.92mm Female End Launch Connector VST-CPM292RF-03
P/N: VST-CPM292RF-03
- For edge-launch transitions to microstrip PCBs
- Clamp-style design for solder-free installation
- M1.6 screws ensure secure and repeatable contact
- Optimized for fixture development and high-frequency validation
- Supports precision measurements through 40 GHz
Engineering Note
The VST-CPM292RF-03 is a precision 2.92mm female end launch connector designed for controlled microwave board-edge transitions. Its clamp-style end-launch structure is intended to interface directly with the PCB edge, helping create a stable and repeatable RF launch without the bulk of a larger fixture-style mounting scheme. With 50 Ω impedance, DC to 40 GHz performance, VSWR ≤ 1.25, and a dual-screw clamping structure, this connector is well suited for RF evaluation boards, microwave fixtures, and compact high-frequency interconnect assemblies.
