R&J Components has been a leading Amphenol RF distributor for over 20yrs.  Amphenol RF is the premier manufacture of connectors with commercial, industrial and military offerings.

Their connectors are widely used in a large spectrum of applications including

• Broadband
• Wireless
• Automation
• Military
• Aerospace

What type of connector you may need mainly depends on the cable, and frequency of your application.  

Amphenol RF can offer a wide range of styles and types of RF connectors including

BNC, HN, TNC, SMA as well as other sub miniature coax connectors SMB, SMC, and SMS

Many connectors are offered in commercial grade designated by a suffix RFX as a low cost alternate to industrial grade.

Amphenol RF offers connectors and adapters QPL approved to MIL-PRF-39012 and 55339

Amphenol RF changed their part # designations by adding a 0 prefix to the p# IE: p# 31-236 a BNC bulkhead connector is now p# 031-236 which is the Amphenol p# for the discontinued government # UG625B/U. 

Today we will highlight the HN Connector.  IE: 082-805 4-hole flange receptacle. HN connectors are manufactured for high voltage applications, and harsh environments. These are offered in the industrial version with nickel plated brass bodies and silver and gold contacts. All HN connectors are weatherproof

Applications

• Instrumentation
• Cable Assemblies

Jumper Test Leads and Terminal Jacks for Nuclear Applications

Pomona two-part jumpers and connectors are helping nuclear power plants streamline testing procedures and improve human performance by providing a higher-level of quality, reliability and utility than what they were using before. By integrating a common set of connectors and a consistent color scheme into their procedures and peer check processes, plant technicians reduce the risk of placing jumpers on the wrong terminals and causing an event that could shut the plant down.
