EN IEC 61169-45, which is a sectional specification (SS), provides information and rules for the preparation of detail specifications (DS) for type SQMA quick lock RF coaxial connectors. The connectors are normally used with 50 O in microwave, telecommunication, wireless and other fields, connecting with RF cables or micro-strips. The operating frequency limit is up to 18 GHz. It describes the interface dimensions for general purpose connectors grade 2 and standard test connectors - grade 0 with gauging information and the mandatory tests selected from IEC 61169-1, applicable to all detail specifications relative to type SQMA connectors. This specification indicates the recommended performance characteristics to be considered when writing a DS and covers all tests schedules and inspection requirements for assessment levels M and H.

L'IEC 61169-45:2014, qui est une spécification intermédiaire (SI), fournit des informations et des règles en vue de l'établissement de spécifications particulières (SP) de connecteurs coaxiaux RF de type SQMA à verrouillage rapide. Les connecteurs sont normalement utilisés avec une valeur de 50 Ohms dans des appareils communiquant sans fil, en hyperfréquences, de télécommunications ainsi que dans d'autres domaines, permettant la connexion avec les câbles RF ou les microrubans. La limite de fréquence de fonctionnement est inférieure ou égale à 18 GHz. Elle décrit également les dimensions d'interface pour des connecteurs d'usage général de classe 2, et des connecteurs d'essai normalisés - classe 0, ainsi que des informations concernant les calibres et les essais obligatoires choisis dans l'IEC 61169-1, applicables à toutes les spécifications particulières ayant trait aux connecteurs de la série SQMA. La présente spécification indique les caractéristiques de performance recommandées à prendre en compte pour la rédaction d'une spécification particulière, et elle couvre les programmes d'essais et les exigences de contrôle pour les niveaux d'assurance qualité M et H.

Radiofrekvenčni konektorji - 45. del: Oddelčna specifikacija za koaksialne zaklepne RF-konektorje serije SQMA (IEC 61169-45:2014)

Part 45: Sectional specification for SQMA
series quick lock RF coaxial connectors

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 publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 61169-45 has been prepared by subcommittee 46F: R.F. and
microwave passive components, of IEC technical committee 46: Cables, wires, waveguides,
R.F. connectors, R.F. and microwave passive components and accessories.
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:

Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on
voting indicated in the above table.

IEC 61169-1, applicable to all detail specifications relative to type SQMA connectors.
This specification indicates the recommended performance characteristics to be considered
when writing a DS and covers all tests schedules and inspection requirements for assessment
levels M and H.
2 Normative references

4 Quality assessment procedure
4.1 General
The subclauses of this Clause 4 provide recommended ratings, performance and test
conditions to be considered when writing a detail specification (DS). They also provide an
appropriate schedule of tests with minimum levels of conformance.
4.2 Ratings and characteristics
The values indicated below in Tables 6 and 7 are recommended for type SQMA connectors
and are given for the writer of the detail specification. They are applicable for the condition
when the connectors are fully mated.
Certain tests will usually not be required. When these tests are required, appropriate values
shall be entered in the detail specification at the discretion of the specification writer.
