IEC 61169-14:2010

Radio-frequency connectors - Part 14: R.F. coaxial connectors with inner diameter of outer conductor 12 mm with screw coupling - Characteristic impedance 75 ohms (Type 3,5/12)

IEC 61169-11:2010 concerns RF coaxial connectors for use with RF cables both flexible and semi-rigid, where air dielectric interface and high mechanical stability is required for severe environmental exposure. The connectors provide low reflection in the microwave region up to 12 GHz and all patterns may provide sealing up to a pressure differential of 3 bar.

Connecteurs pour fréquences radioélectriques - Partie 14: Connecteurs coaxiaux pour fréquences de diamètre intérieur du conducteur extérieur de 12 mm à verrouillage à vis - Impédance caractéristique 75 ohms (Type 3,5/12)

La CEI 61169-14:2010 concerne les connecteurs coaxiaux pour fréquences radioélectriques pouvant être utilisés avec des câbles pour fréquences radioélectriques, soit souples, soit semi-rigides, avec interface à diélectrique air et où une haute stabilité mécanique est exigée pour des conditions d'environnement sévères. Les connecteurs ont un bas coefficient de réflexion dans le domaine des micro-ondes allant jusqu'à 12 GHz et tous les modèles peuvent être étanches jusqu'à une pression différentielle de 3 bar. La version française de cette norme n'a pas été soumise au vote.

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 technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this public
