Description

The TNC M LMR 200 CRIMP refers to a specific type of coaxial connector and cable combination used in RF (Radio Frequency) applications. Here’s a breakdown of the components: TNC (Threaded Neill-Concelman): This is a type of RF connector that is similar to the BNC (Bayonet Neill-Concelman) connector but has a threaded coupling mechanism instead of a bayonet lock. The threaded connection provides a more secure and stable connection, making TNC connectors ideal for higher frequencies and environments where vibrations or movement may disrupt other types of connectors. TNC connectors are commonly used in a variety of telecommunications, networking, and RF equipment. M (Male): In this context, "M" indicates that the connector is a male type, meaning it has a central pin that will connect to a corresponding female connector that has a central socket. LMR 200: This refers to a specific type of coaxial cable used in RF applications. LMR (Low Loss Radio) cables are designed to minimize signal loss over long distances. LMR 200 is a particular size of coaxial cable, with a diameter of about 0.200 inches (5.08 mm). It is a flexible, low-loss cable typically used in wireless communication systems, antenna installations, and other RF applications. CRIMP: This refers to the method used to attach the TNC male connector to the LMR 200 coaxial cable. Crimping is a process where a metal connector is secured to the cable by mechanically deforming the connector onto the cable using a crimping tool. The crimping process ensures a solid electrical connection and can be more durable than soldering in some cases. Summary: The TNC M LMR 200 CRIMP is a coaxial cable assembly where a male TNC connector is crimped onto LMR 200 coaxial cable. This assembly is commonly used in RF applications, offering a secure, low-loss connection for transmitting signals in telecommunications, wireless networks, and antenna systems.
