QuickBuild RF, a partnership between
Amphenol RF and
Amphenol Custom Cable, has announced the introduction of
FAKRA connectors into its technology portfolio. The FAKRA connectors are the latest addition to the continuously expanding connector offerings contained within the companies' custom
RF cable configurator, which launched earlier this year.
Embedded within a plastic housing which features multiple color codes for easy identification and unique keying to prevent mis-mating, FAKRA connectors are designed to perform up to 3 GHz and meet the particular mechanical and environmental requirements of the automotive industry.
QuickBuild RF customers will immediately be able to utilize FAKRA connectors in the universal Z key code to build custom RF cable assemblies. The connectors are available in a variety of straight and right-angle configurations with both jack and plug options. The resulting cable assemblies are primarily for use in, but not limited to, automotive, smart agriculture and drone applications.
