Radio-frequency connectors - Part 48: Sectional specification for series BMP R.F. coaxial connectors

IEC 61169-48:2014, which is a sectional specification (SS), provides information and rules for the preparation of detail specifications (DS) for series BMP RF coaxial connectors with blind mating, typically for use in 50 Ohms board to board connection. They may also be used with RF cables or micro-strips in microwave, telecommunication, wireless and other fields. Their operating frequency limit is up to 6 GHz. It describes the interface dimensions with gauging information, electrical and mechanical performance including the mandatory tests selected from IEC 61169-1:2013 applicable to all DS relating to type BMP connectors. This specification indicates the recommended performance characteristics to be considered when writing a DS and covers test schedules and inspection requirements.

Connecteurs pour fréquences radioélectriques - Partie 48: Spécification intermédiaire relative aux connecteurs coaxiaux R.F. série BMP

L'IEC 61169-48:2014, qui est une spécification intermédiaire (SI), fournit des informations et des règles en vue de l'établissement de spécifications particulières (SP) relative aux connecteurs coaxiaux pour fréquences radioélectriques, série BMP avec accouplement en aveugle, spécifiquement utilisés dans les connexions carte à carte 50 Ohms. Ils peuvent également être utilisés avec les câbles RF ou les microrubans dans les domaines de l'hyperfréquence, des télécommunications, des liaisons sans fil et autres domaines. La limite de leur fréquence de fonctionnement est inférieure ou égale à 6 GHz. Elle décrit les dimensions d'interface ainsi que les informations concernant les calibres, les performances électriques et mécaniques, y compris les essais obligatoires issus de l'IEC 61169-1:2013, applicables à toutes les SP relatives aux connecteurs de type BMP. La présente spécification indique les caractéristiques de performance recommandées à prendre en compte pour la rédaction d'une SP et elle couvre les programmes d'essais et les exigences de contrôle.

Radiofrekvenčni konektorji - 48. del: Področna specifikacija za koaksialne konektorje serije Bmp R.F. (IEC 61169-48:2014)

Ta del standarda IEC 61169, ki je področna specifikacija (SS), podaja informacije in določa pravila za pripravo podrobnih specifikacij (DS) za radiofrekvenčne koaksialne konektorje serije BMP z zakritimi kontakti, običajno za uporabo v 50-ohmski povezavi med ploščami. Uporabljajo se lahko tudi z radiofrekvenčnimi kabli ali mikrotrakovi pri mikrovalovanju, telekomunikacijah, v brezžičnih omrežjih in na drugih področjih. Omejitev frekvenčnega območja delovanja je do 6 GHz.
Dimenzije vmesnikov opisuje z merjenjem informacij, električne in mehanske zmogljivosti, skupaj z obveznimi preskusi, izbranimi iz standarda IEC 61169-1:2013, ki se uporabljajo za vse podrobne specifikacije v zvezi s konektorji vrste BMP.
Ta specifikacija določa priporočene lastnosti, ki jih je treba upoštevati pri sestavljanju podrobnih specifikacij, ter zajema urnike preskusov in zahteve za pregled.
OPOMBA: Izvirne mere so podane v metričnih merah. Vse nedimenzionirane slikovne konfiguracije so podane samo v referenčne namene.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each te
