RF Industries RFN-1022-8-B1 N Female Bulkhead Connector 11GHz 50 Ohm Crimp

The RF Industries RFN-1022-8-B1 is an N Female (Jack) rear mount bulkhead connector engineered for crimp termination on double-shielded RG-316/U and RG-188 coaxial cables (Group B1). With a rated maximum frequency of 11 GHz and a characteristic impedance of 50 Ohms, this connector is well-suited for demanding RF panel installations where a secure, low-loss interface through a chassis or enclosure wall is required. The straight orientation and rear-mount bulkhead design simplify panel integration, while a nickel-plated brass body and gold-plated center contact deliver the corrosion resistance and conductivity expected in professional RF assemblies.

Key features & benefits

• N Female Rear Mount Bulkhead Interface — The Jack (female) rear-mount bulkhead configuration allows the connector to be installed through a panel from the rear, presenting a clean N-type female interface on the front face — ideal for instrument enclosures, equipment racks, and field-deployed chassis.
• 11 GHz Maximum Frequency Rating — Rated to 11 GHz, this connector supports a broad range of RF applications spanning UHF through microwave frequencies, maintaining signal integrity across the operating band.
• 50 Ohm Impedance — Matched to the industry-standard 50 Ohm impedance used in the majority of RF transmission systems, ensuring minimal reflections and consistent performance throughout the signal path.
• Crimp Termination for Group B1 Cables — Designed specifically for crimp termination on double-shielded RG-316/U and RG-188 cables in the Group B1 cable family, providing a repeatable, mechanically secure connection suitable for high-volume or production assembly environments.
• Recommended Crimp Die: 0.130" (RFA-4005-09) — RF Industries specifies crimp die RFA-4005-09 at 0.130" for proper termination, taking the guesswork out of tooling selection and ensuring consistent, specification-compliant crimps.
• Nickel-Plated Brass Body with Gold-Plated Center Contact — The brass body with nickel plating resists corrosion and provides robust mechanical durability, while the gold-plated center contact ensures low contact resistance and long-term reliability in the signal path.
