N-Type Jack for RG-402 — What's in the Kit and Where It Fits
The Amphenol RF 082-6097-RFX is an N-type jack (female socket) rated at 50 Ohm impedance with an 11 GHz frequency ceiling and 0.15 dB insertion loss — a genuine RF component for semi-rigid coax runs, not a generic antenna connector. It ships as a 7-piece field-assembly kit: one connector body, one gold-plated phosphor bronze center contact, one silicone gasket, one PTFE insulator, one lockwasher, and two hex nuts. The kit format means you terminate the RG-402 (.141" semi-rigid) cable on site with a solder pot for the center pin and a solder bucket for the shield — no crimp tool required, just a soldering iron and a wrench for the coupling nut.
The 11 GHz max frequency and 0.15 dB insertion loss indicate the connector passes a clean signal through the X-band. The 1500 V voltage rating is generous for an N-type.
Weatherproof and Field-Repairable — What the Hardware Tells You
The weatherproof ingress protection rating (with the included gasket) and the threaded fastening mean this jack seals against rain and condensation when mated — it's suited for tower-top antenna feeds or outdoor instrumentation enclosures. The 500 mating cycles confirm the gold-over-nickel center contact will survive regular reconnects in test setups or field maintenance rotations. All of it can be re-pinned on site: if the center contact wears, you unsolder the old one, solder in a new gold-plated phosphor bronze contact, and re-use the body and hardware.
