Precision RF connectors engineered for controlled impedance and mechanical accuracy.

Hughes Connector Series delivers exceptional electrical performance through precise mechanical dimensioning and low-tolerance manufacturing processes that eliminate common connection failure modes. Accurate dimensional control ensures optimal mating fit between connectors and cables, preventing signal distortions, insertion losses, reflections, and passive intermodulation caused by imperfect mechanical interfaces. The series maintains controlled impedance, phase stability, and minimal VSWR across all connector types through precision-engineered contact systems and dielectric interfaces. Hughes' advanced manufacturing techniques produce consistent mechanical form that guarantees reliable mating cycles and long-term connection stability in demanding telecommunications environments. Available across multiple interface standards including 7/16 DIN, N-type, and 4.3-10 configurations, these connectors are suited to antenna systems, feeder installations, and test equipment where electrical performance and mechanical reliability cannot be compromised throughout the service life of the installation.

Features and Benefits

1/4" Connectors

Phase and Wavelength Matching

Poor sinewave matching and consequential phase changes generate harmonic and ghost signals causing PIM. Hughes offer phase/delay matched connector and adaptor products, ideal for transmitting complementary low PIM data streams.

3/8" Connectors

Impedance Matching

Mismatched impedance causes reflected signals and losses. Hughes's accurate impedance to frequency profiling guarantees low VSWR ratios, fewer losses and more power.

1/2" Connectors

High Precision Dimensional Tolerances

Conceived by Hughes' design team to fit all popular cables, our mechanical interfaces are also precision crafted to provide an optimised mechanical fit with all leading brand manufacturers’ connector devices to deliver premium electrical and signal transition performance.

7/8" Connectors

Low PIM

Hughes Connector Series are electro-plated with Hughes resilient tri-metal coating to provide resistance to PIM sources such as corrosion and abrasions, they are supplied with Hughes specially designed multiple-choice O-rings and sealing lubricant to aid assembly and form an IP-rated watertight bond with just about any form of 7/8th feeder cable.
