HARRISBURG, Pa. - Tyco Electronics Corporation, a leading supplier of RF (radio frequency) and microwave connectors and cable assemblies, introduces the QSL (Quick Stripline) RF connector series. This new connector interface is designed to support the increasing demands for WiFi (802.11) and WiMax (802.16) enabled products and applications.

The innovative coaxial cable displacement interface is a cost effective alternative to standard screw machine connectors for most cable-to-cable and cable-to-PC board applications. The developing family of connectors includes both single and multi-port versions, with a wide range of configuration options including PCB and cable mount receptacles, cable plugs terminated to RG 174 and RG 316 cable types, and cable assemblies terminated in IP 67 weatherproof housings. The QSL interface exhibits excellent performance through 6 GHz, has a temperature range of -40 to +85ºC, and durability of 250 cycles for single port and 500 cycles minimum for 3 port QSL connectors. The QSL is suitable for 50-ohm applications, such as PCI/PCI Express cards and antennas for desktop PCs, mobile antennas, and satellite radio. Plastic molding of housings also facilitates fabrication of unique interfaces that comply with FCC requirements for Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), Broadcast, and other wireless communication systems. The platform is easily expandable, with performance head room for new RF platforms and standards initiatives (i.e. WIMAX, WIBRO, WIMEDIA, Intelligent Transportation, Wireless Broadcast and beyond). Features such as polarization and keying, jackscrews, and squeeze-to-release versions, low engagement and disengagement forces, and specialty hybrid interfaces are readily accommodated. Designs are fully RoHS compliant.
