SMPM Jack for 26.5 GHz Signal Paths
The 925-196J-51PT: The gold-plated brass body and gold-plated centre contact maintain low contact resistance across 100 mating cycles. Surface-mount termination suits automated pick-and-place assembly for compact RF modules and test boards.
Full Detent vs Smooth Bore — What the Feature Means
The full detent on the 925-196J-51PT gives a defined tactile click on mate and a higher extraction force than a smooth-bore SMPM. For a board that will see field service or vibration, the detent keeps the pair engaged without relying on a secondary lock. The sibling 925-197J-51PT is a smooth-bore version of the same SMPM jack — same 50 Ohm impedance, same 100 mating cycles, same gold body finish — but without the detent. The smooth bore allows easier disconnection for test ports or blind-mate applications where low insertion force matters more than retention. The 925-196J-51PT is the choice when the connector needs to stay put once mated.
