scope:

This part of IEC 61169, which is a sectional specification (SS), provides information and rules for the preparation of detail specifications (DS) for RF coaxial connectors with push-on coupling, typically for use in 50 Ω RF cables or micro-strips in microwave, telecommunication, wireless systems and other fields (SMPM).

It specifies mating face dimensions for general purpose connectors - grade 2, dimensional details of standard test connectors-grade 0, gauging information and tests selected from IEC 61169-1, applicable to all detail specifications relating to series SMPM 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.

The SMPM push-on coupling structure series RF coaxial connectors with the characteristic of normative impedance 50 Ω are used with various kinds of RF cables or micro-strips in microwave, telecommunication, wireless systems. The operating frequency limit is up to 65 GHz.
