In practice, this covers most cellular, ISM-band, and GPS applications, but not higher-frequency microwave links. The 500 mating cycles are driven by the gold-over-nickel plating on the beryllium copper center contact; tin-plated RF connectors typically spec 100–200 cycles. If the connector is going into a one-time install (base station antenna feed), the cycle life is generous margin. For a test-jig panel where the connector is mated daily, 500 cycles gives roughly 2 years of daily use before the contact wear starts shifting insertion loss. ## Kit Contents and Mounting Detail The lockwasher goes between the panel and the nut to maintain preload under vibration.","metaTitle":"031-6359 TNC Jack, 50 Ohm, 2 GHz, Panel Mount, Bulk","metaDescription":"031-6359 TNC jack, female socket, 50 Ohm impedance, 2 GHz max frequency, panel mount with bulkhead rear-side nut.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["RF / Coaxial Connectors"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"Amphenol RF","Series":"-","Package":"Bulk","Features":"-","Includes":"3 pcs - 1 Connector, 1 Lockwasher, 1 Nut","Impedance":"50Ohm","Body Finish":"Nickel","Cable Group":"-","Body Material":"Brass","Housing Color":"Silver","Mating Cycles":"500","Mounting Type":"Panel Mount","Connector Type":"Jack, Female Socket","Fastening Type":"Threaded","Insertion Loss":"-","Product Status":"Active","Connector Style":"TNC","Frequency - Max":"2 GHz","Number of Ports":"1","lifecycle_stage":"unknown","Mounting Feature":"Bulkhead - Rear Side Nut","Ingress Protection":"-","Shield Termination":"Solder","Base Product Number":"031-63","Contact Termination":"Solder Cup","Dielectric Material":"Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)","Operating Temperature":"-40°C~155°C","Center Contact Plating":"Gold","Center Contact Material":"Beryllium Copper"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$11.7099","priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icsourcedirect.com/521718c6edd9c935ba75adedc8f0f11d.pdf","sourceUrl":null,"alternativesUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/api/mcp/products/031-6359/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the impedance of 031-6359?","answer":"The 031-6359 is a 50 Ohm TNC jack, rated for use up to 2 GHz."},{"question":"What does 031-6359 include in the package?","answer":"The package includes three pieces: one TNC jack connector body, one lockwasher, and one hex nut for bulkhead mounting.
