The Amphenol HSDNASPPCB14WBA is a single-port HSD® Fakra Quadraxial plug with male pins, Code A keying, and a latch lock. It belongs to the HSD (High-Speed Data) connector family, designed for shielded RF signal paths in automotive infotainment, camera, and antenna modules where a 50-ohm controlled impedance interface is required. The Code A keying variant ensures it mates only with the matching Code A receptacle — a deliberate anti-cross-mate feature for multi-connector harnesses.
Key Ratings and the So-What
Through-hole solder termination on both the signal pins and the shield gives a mechanically robust joint that survives rework. The shield is soldered via the four ground legs — treat the shield termination as part of the RF return path, not just a mechanical anchor. The body is zinc alloy with a tin finish; the tin provides a solderable surface for the shield connection and some corrosion resistance in non-sealed environments.
