Mini-SMP

 

Rosenberger Mini-SMP connectors are extremely small coaxial connectors, approximately 70% of standard SMP size. They are designed for applications up to 65 GHz and mainly for high-speed signal transmission (typically 10 or 40 Gbps). Plugs are available as smooth bore-versions – for plug-in technology and backplane applications – and as vibration resistant full detent types, for the highest mechanical loads such as those found in aerospace engineering.

Mini-SMP subminiature connectors are well-proven, offering a high level of flexibility in alignment tolerances and for simplifying the whole production process. Rosenberger Mini-SMP coaxial connectors are mateable with common Mini-SMP connectors as specified by MIL-STD-348A, Fig. 328, as well as GPPO™ (Gilbert Engineering Co., Inc.) and SSMP™ (Carlisle Interconnect Technologies) series. 

The PCB connectors are supplied in tape and reel packaging for automatic assembly to boards and also in blisters.
