scope:

This part of IEC 61169, which is a Sectional Specification (SS), provides information and rules for the preparation of Detail Specifications (DS) for type STWX8 R.F. coaxial connectors with push-pull self-lock coupling. The connectors are normally used with flexible and semi-rigid R.F. cables for middle power applications in conjunction with 50 ? cables in an operating frequency range up to 4 GHz. It describes the interface dimensions for general purpose grade 2 connectors, dimensional details for standard test connectors, grade 0, together with gauging information and the mandatory tests selected from QC 220000 (IEC 61169-1), applicable to all DS relating to type STWX8 connectors. This specification indicates the recommended performance characteristics to be considered when writing a DS and covers test schedules and inspection requirements.
