Rosenberger’s new EBC® (Efficient Board Connector) series is the ideal 5G board-to-board and board-to-module RF interconnect solution for active MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) antennas and radios. Outstanding performance, low cost design and high mechanical stability make EBC® the perfect future-proof product for 5G radio interconnections. For applications up to 8 GHz, EBC® connectors fulfill the challenging requirements caused by the exponential data volumes increases in future 5G networks. Essential characteristics include extremely small dimensions, radial and axial misalignments, different holding forces, minimum board-to-board distances, and fast and cost-effective assembly design. A key mechanical design feature is the locating side which is integrated in the bullet. One side has a smooth bore, while the other has a limited-detent design. The single PCB coupler provides a consistent footprint with preloaded outer contacts for ensuring contact optimization, the push/snap-on locking mechanism allows fast and easy disconnection.

Rosenberger provides SMA, BNC and TNC reverse polarity connectors. These coaxial connectors are non-standardized versions, offering interfaces similar to the standard but with center contacts and dielectricum reversed; for use with W-LAN routers when safeguarding against the possibility of incorrect component connection.

Highly compact, HVR®420 connectors offer the highest current carrying capacity in the Rosenberger product portfolio. Even the 95 mm² variant safely enables current transmission of 420 A. Furthermore, the additional slide locking mechanism (CPA – Connector Position Assurance) prevents accidental disconnection. Typical applications include supercharging electric vehicle batteries up to 450 kWh.
