Connector Type and Interface Standard
The HSDNCRPPCB7A is a Rosenberger HSD® Fakra Quadraxial plug with male pin contacts. It follows the HSD (High-Speed Data) and Fakra interface standards, commonly used for automotive RF and high-speed data links such as GPS, satellite radio, and cellular antenna connections. The quadraxial design provides four signal paths within a single connector body, supporting differential signal pairs with controlled impedance.
Mounting and Termination for Board-Level Integration
The shield and center contacts are both solder-terminated, so the assembly goes through a single wave-solder pass.
Latching and Mechanical Retention
The zinc alloy body with tin finish provides a durable shell that resists corrosion in under-hood or chassis-mounted locations.
Contact Plating and Signal Path
The center contacts are gold-plated over copper alloy, which maintains low and stable contact resistance across repeated mating cycles — important for RF signal integrity where every milliohm of interface resistance affects insertion loss. The dielectric material is thermoplastic, selected for its stable electrical properties across temperature.
Packaging and Production Readiness
The reel option feeds directly into pick-and-place lines for automated board assembly, while cut tape suits prototype or low-volume builds. The part carries a Code C feature designation, which typically indicates a specific keying or color variant within the HSD Fakra family to prevent mis-mating with other coded ports.
