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 clamp coupling, typically for use in 75 Ω cable networks (type F-Quick). It describes the interface dimensions with gauging information, electrical and mechanical performance including the mandatory tests selected from IEC 61169-1, applicable to all DS relating to type F-Quick connectors. This specification indicates the recommended performance characteristics to be considered when writing a DS and covers test schedules and inspection requirements. NOTE - This interface is typically used for indoor connections, which are easily disconnected and reconnected. The typical application is for F-type coaxial receiver leads or F-type coaxial patch cables. The interface may also be known as a Push - On connector. It is preferred to use the fixed (screwed) connectors type F according to IEC 61169-24.
