Right-angle Fakra plug for board-edge RF
The 2FA1-NDRP-PCB-6: It carries the Code D keying, which corresponds to the violet/claret housing color and prevents cross-mating with other Fakra color codes in multi-connector harness assemblies.
Mounting and termination for board layout
The through-hole solder termination for both the center pin and the shield provides a mechanically robust joint that handles the strain of a coaxial cable attached to the mating half.
Locking ramp and environmental range
The 100 mating cycle rating is typical for a Fakra connector; it is not intended for frequent field reconnection but holds up through the assembly and service life of a vehicle.
Code D keying and material construction
The Code D keying is physically distinct from other Fakra codes (A, B, C, etc.), so a Code D plug will only mate with a Code D receptacle. The zinc die-cast body with tin finish provides EMI shielding and corrosion resistance, while the gold-plated brass center contact ensures low and stable contact resistance over the rated 100 mating cycles. The connector ships in a tray, which is the standard packaging for automated pick-and-place assembly of through-hole components.
Comparison with FA1-NDRP-PCB-8
The FA1-NDRP-PCB-8 is the closest functional peer in the same Fakra series — same Code D keying, same 50 Ohm impedance, same locking ramp, same 100 mating cycles, and same 6 GHz frequency rating. The key difference is packaging: the 2FA1-NDRP-PCB-6 ships in a tray as a single connector, while the FA1-NDRP-PCB-8 ships in a box and includes a housing as a two-piece assembly (connector plus housing). For a BOM line that specifies the bare plug without the separate housing, the 2FA1-NDRP-PCB-6 is the correct line item.
