This new changeable interface connector system consists of two parts: the connector body, which is fixed to a processor board; and the changeable interface, which connects to the mating half; this in turn can be DIN 1.0/2.3, BNC or Micro-BNC, among others.
Designed for high-speed high definition video applications, such as CoaXPress® CXP1/6, all mainstream 75 Ohm coaxial interface styles can be accommodated using this system. One standard connector footprint on the PCB thus provides a wide variety of mating options. PCB layouts can be made independent of connector types providing economies of scale in production and also enabling future proofing of board designs.In addition, the changeable interface connector system greatly reduces time and costs when modifications to the front interfaces are necessary to meet different connector styles. Equipment can be shipped with a variety of connector front ends as standard, allowing field configurations to be implemented onsite.
The system is also ideal for test equipment applications.
Device characteristics include a nominal impedance of 75 Ohm and typical reflection factor performance (VSWR) of 1.10 maximum (DC – 3.0GHz) for the PCB mount device, and 1.35 maximum (3.0 – 6.0GHz) for the BNC, 1.0/2.3 and Micro-BNC interfaces.
Other electrical characteristics of the system include a working voltage of 250V with a withstand voltage of 750V and greater than 1000-MOhm insulation resistance. The high-durability connectors offer 500 mating cycles, offer a wide operating temperature range of –65 to +85 degrees C and meet ML-STD-202 for resistance to vibration and salt spray.
