scope:

This specification covers the general requirements and tests for radio frequency connectors used with coaxial, strip, or microstrip transmission line devices.

Connectors shall be of the following types and part numbers, as specified (see 3.1).

Each connector shall be marked with the complete part number. The part number shall be as shown in the following example:

The material of the connector body shall be designated by the numbers 0, 1, 3, 4, and 5 as follows:

0 - Brass 1 - Phosphor bronze 3 - Corrosion resistant steel 4 - Copper beryllium 5 - Copper alloy

The finish of the connector body shall be designated by the numbers 1 through 5 as follows:

1 - Passivated 2 - Gold 3 - Gold plated body and passivated coupling nut 4 - Silver 5 - Nickel

This appendix is to provide additional information to the user of this specification in performing the voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR), radio frequency (RF) leakage and radio frequency (RF) transmission loss measurements.
