Coaxial SMA Cables

SMA Coaxial Cable Assemblies

The SMA cables in the assemblies listed above consist of Accu-Glass Products' TYP6, 26 AWG, 50-Ohm coaxial cable.  These components are rated to 250°C and 1 x 10^-10 Torr.

Connector to Cable in-vacuum UHV SMA cable assemblies are fitted with stainless steel Accu-Fast™ or SMA male connectors at one end and a "Connector #2" selectable option on the other.   Connector #2 options: SMA male, SMA female, User-End female, or non-terminated.

The connectors mate directly to the in-vacuum side of SMA feedthrough flanges.

SMA Coaxial Interface

The 'Subminiature Type-A' coaxial connector, referred to as the SMA coaxial interface, is commonly used in conjunction with high-frequency, low noise 50-ohm instrumentation signal lines. SMA coaxial feedthroughs are constructed in both grounded and floating shield configurations. Floating shield types provide two concentric conductor paths: an outer metal conductor tube (shield) concentric with, and enclosing, a cylindrical center conductor pin. Both paths are electrically isolated from each other and a mounting flange. Grounded shield SMAs provide only one path that's electrically isolated from the flange, where grounded shield and flange are electrically common.

Vacuum side of single-ended grounded and floating SMA feedthroughs have a 0.094 inch (2.4-mm) diameter conductor pin that mates with grounded or floating AccuFast™ connectors. Vacuum compatible cable assemblies are fitted with Kapton® insulated 26 AWG, 50-ohm coaxial cable, with either Accufast™ connectors or gold-plated SMA connectors.
