SMPS
SMPS

The next generation in miniature connectors and SV Microwave’s RFffortless is the SMPS. The SMPS furthers SVs threadless designs of push-on and blindmate connectors and is capable of frequencies exceeding 100 GHz. Being 45% smaller than the SMP and 30% smaller then the SMPM, the SMPS is ideal for dense packaging in multiport applications. The SMPS also has a low interface height making it an excellent choice for board to board applications using a bullet design.  Current configurations include male and female cable connectors, board mount, edge launch and the female bullet. The male interface is available in smooth bore for easy mating or detent for female retention.

Directly compatible with the G3PO interface, the SMPS has low VSWR of 1.12 to 50 GHz for the female bullet while allowing for .010” of radial and axial misalignment. The smooth bore design will mate and demate a minimum of 500 cycles and the detent design is capable of 100 cycles minimum.

From the original SMP to the smaller SMPM and now the SMPS, SV Microwave has your effortless connection of push-on connectors.
