High Performance RF PCB Thru-Hole Connectors

As part of our commitment to continuous quality improvement, SV has re-designed a line of thru-hole PCB connectors with current design standards to improve performance at higher frequencies. These connectors feature a contact that goes through the PCB and can launch directly to transmission lines on the opposite side. Current configurations include straight and right-angle SMP male connectors.
