RPC-SL

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 a variety of snap-in D-Sub coaxial and power inserts for fast, reliable mixed card edge chassis. Their small dimensions allow high packing densities as well as easy connection. A combination including power connectors is also available on request. D-Sub Coax Inserts and cable connectors 50 Ω are designed for use in mixed card edge connections in accordance to D-Sub. The maximum frequency is approximately 2 GHz. Available on request. Power Inserts meet the requirements of DIN 41626-T1 and are designed for use in mixed card edge connections in accordance to DIN 41612 or D-Sub. Contact current 10 A, 20 A, 30 A, 40 A. Available on request.

Rosenberger RPC-7 “hermaphroditic” connectors with 7 mm diameter at outer contact are designed for precision measurements up to 18 GHz and are suitable for semi-rigid cables and microwave components. Mating electrically with center and outer conductor by end-surface (butt) contact, the mechanical connection is designed as a counter-sinkable threaded socket. For total flexibility, these low reflection connectors are intermateable with all common 7 mm series connectors including APC-7, PC-7, GPC-7 or Precifix AA. Furthermore, RPC-7 and RPC-N connector heads are interchangeable using the same bead type. The wide product range comprises connectors and connector heads, adaptors, interchangeable port connectors, airlines as well as test & measurement accessories such as RPC-7 calibration and verification kits, test cables, attenuators or measurement equipment (open – short – load).
