Description

BNC 12D right-angle connectors are specialized 90° coaxial adapters designed for space-constrained test setups, RF modules, and PCB applications where a low-profile connection is required. Below is a detailed breakdown of their features, applications, and top models. 1. Key Features of BNC 12D Right-Angle Connectors ✔ 90° Angled Design – Saves space in tight layouts (e.g., behind panels, PCBs). ✔ 12D Series – Compact form factor (smaller than standard BNC). ✔ 50Ω Impedance – Ensures minimal signal reflection (VSWR <1.3:1). ✔ Frequency Range – DC to 4 GHz (some up to 6 GHz for precision models). ✔ Coupling Mechanism – Bayonet lock (quick-connect, tool-free). ✔ Materials – Brass body, gold-plated beryllium copper (BeCu) contacts. 2. Types of BNC 12D Right-Angle Connectors A) Standard 50Ω BNC 12D Right-Angle Use Case: Oscilloscope probes, RF test fixtures. Example: Amphenol RF 112412 (Nickel-plated, crimp/solder). B) High-Frequency BNC 12D (Up to 6 GHz) Use Case: High-speed digital/RF measurements. Example: Huber+Suhner BNC-12D-7T (Precision-machined). C) PCB-Mount BNC 12D Right-Angle Use Case: Embedded systems, DAQ modules. Example: TE Connectivity 5-1634503-1 (Through-hole solder). D) Bulkhead/Panel-Mount BNC 12D Use Case: Enclosures, rack-mounted equipment. Example: Pasternack PE6417 (Threaded flange).
