PRODUCTS
RF connectors and coaxial interfaces suited to the signal path.
We support the selection and integration of RF connectors for antennas, coaxial cables and PCBs. The interface series, form factor and PCB transition must be electrically and mechanically compatible.
01 / SELECTION & INTEGRATION
SMA and miniature coaxial connectors
We treat connectors as part of the complete connection. A correct mechanical mating interface is as important as a controlled RF interface.
- SMA connections for assemblies, cables and PCB transitions.
- MHF1 and MHF4 connectors in documented antenna and cable variants.
- Straight or right-angle configuration, mounting and available space.
02 / SELECTION & INTEGRATION
The connector launch on the PCB
The transition from a coaxial connector to a PCB trace can cause mismatch and resonances. We optimise the launch geometry together with the stack-up, reference planes and ground connections.
- 50 Ω microstrip or coplanar transmission lines.
- Pad geometry, via fencing and return-current paths.
- Electromagnetic simulation and S-parameter measurements of critical transitions.
03 / SELECTION & INTEGRATION
Product selection and enquiries
Connectors are included in our documented antennas and cable assemblies. There is currently no separate approved DigiKey catalogue range for individual RF connectors. Please contact us to agree a suitable connection solution.
- Available cables with the selected connector in the online catalogue.
- Compatibility checks based on the exact connector series.
- Integration and custom cable assemblies on request.
PRODUCT SELECTION
Discuss the right configuration directly with us.
For your connector solution, please specify the mating interface, frequency range, mounting configuration and quantity. Available connector combinations are listed under RF cable assemblies.

Developing the right antenna and RF solution together.
We work with you to determine whether a new design, optimisation or product customisation is the right approach.
