This sectional specification provides information and rules for preparation of detail
specification of 2,92 series RF coaxial connectors together with the pro-forma blank detail
specification.
It also prescribes mating face dimensions for high performance connectors - grade 1,
dimensional detail of standard test connectors - Grade 0, gauging information and tests
selected from IEC 61169-1 applicable to all detail specifications relating to 2,92 series RF
coaxial connectors.
This specification indicates recommended performance characteristics to be considered when
writing a detail specification and it covers test schedules and inspection requirements for
assessment levels M and H.
The 2,92 series coaxial connectors with characteristic impedance 50 O, 2,92 mm inner
diameter of outer conductor and screw coupling, are used for millimeter wave applications,
connecting with RF cables or microstrips. The operating frequency limit is up to 40 GHz.
Mating interface standards of the 2,92 series connectors are similar to IEEE std 287-2007
(2,92 mm) and MIL-std-348A (SMK). The 2,92 connectors can be inter-mated with SMA, and
3,5 mm connectors as per following standards. SMA: IEC 61169-35, MIL-PRF-39012D and
MIL-STD-348A. 3,5 mm: IEC 60169-23, IEEE std 287-2007.
