scope:

This PAS is a sectional specification providing information and rules for preparation of detail specification of SSMB series R.F. connectors together with the pro forma blank detail specification. The SSMB series connectors with characteristic impedance 50 Ω are one kind of low power miniature connectors with snap-on coupling mechanism and have the characteristics of light weight, small size, convenient connection and excellent characteristics. This connector range is suitable for the standard ranges of flexible and semi-rigid cables and is also available as a PCB mounted version. The connectors are usable up to a frequency of 3 GHz. It also prescribes mating face dimensions for grade 2 general purpose connectors, dimensional detail of grade 0 standard test connectors, gauging information and tests selected from IEC 61169-1 applicable to all detail specifications relating to SSMB series RF connectors. This specification indicates recommended performance characteristics to be considered when writing a detail specification and it covers test schedules and inspection requirements for assessment levels M and H.
