The FA1-NHRP-PCB-8: It's not an N-type connector; the SMB snap-on interface is smaller and quicker to mate, while the Fakra keying (Code H) keeps it from cross-mating with other Fakra variants in a multi-connector harness.
RF Performance and Signal Integrity
Rated for 50 Ohm systems with a maximum frequency of 6 GHz and an insertion loss of 0.3 dB, this plug handles typical automotive-grade RF duties — GPS, cellular, or V2X antenna feeds. The gold-plated brass centre contact keeps the signal path clean through repeated mates, and the PTFE dielectric holds the impedance steady across the temperature range.
Through-hole right-angle mounting — the solder posts for the shield and the centre pin go through the board and get wave-soldered. The shield termination is solder as well, which gives a solid ground connection to the PCB plane. Rated for 100 mating cycles — enough for field-service life in a vehicle or test fixture, but not a daily-connect lab cable.
