RPC-1.35
Rosenbergerβs new RPC-1.35* precision connector series meets the growing demand for precision, high-performance RF-connections up to 90 GHz. The range addresses the expanding market for 5G, industrial sensors in the E-Band, millimeter wave sensors for self-driving vehicles, WLAN IEEE 802.11ax and 802.11ay. RPC-1.35 connectors offer a highly robust mechanical design, minimum 3000 mating cycles, high connector repeatability, and maximum return loss values β ideal for ensuring RF measurements in the E-Band without delays.
The product portfolio covers semi-rigid and flexible cable assemblies, PCB connectors, test PCBs, cable connectors, in-series and inter-series adaptors, test ports, floating and waveguide-to-coaxial adaptors as well as gauge and calibration kits.
*A working group, comprising PTB (Physikalisch Technische Bundesanstalt), Rosenberger, Rohde & Schwarz and Spinner, designed the new 1.35 mm connector to close the gap between 1.85 mm and 1.00 mm connectors. The interface standardization is in progress.
Product Portfolio

Features
- Impedance 50 β¦
- Interface standardization of the 1.35 mm interface is in progress for IEC (IEC 61169-65) and for IEEE (IEEE Std 287)
- Frequency range DC to 90 GHz
- Mating cycles β₯ 3000
- Air dielectric with PEEK bead

Benefits
- Screw-on/Threaded locking mechnism, Push-pull as an option
- "Thru male" capability, i.e. pin diameter must coincide with inner conductor of standard 0.047-inch semi-rigid cable (largest cable covering the E-Band)
- Damage-free connection
- Excellent return-loss values
- Reliability and repeatability
- The precision connector which ensures a pin gap in mated condition to avoid near field effects from impairing connector repeatability
- The precision connector which uses a common reference for all eccentricity tolerances to prevent for a tolerance chain
- The precision connector for higher frequencies with a provision for push-pull locking
- High-quality low budget jumper cables possible, because pin diameter is equal to center conductor of 0.047-inch semi-rigid cables
- Can be used with the same torque wrench as most precision connectors (3.50 mm, 2.92 mm, 2.40 mm, 1.85 mm)
Applications
- Precision measurements in high microwave applications up to 90 GHz
- For E-band applications
