It belongs to the Blind-Mate Coaxial series and operates at a 50 Ohm characteristic impedance, covering DC to 40 GHz — the 40 GHz ceiling places it in the upper band of SMP interfaces, suitable for high-frequency test, microwave backplane, and phased-array signal distribution. ## Interface and retention Both ends are SMP plug interfaces with male pins — the adapter does not change gender or series, so it drops into an SMP-to-SMP chain without an impedance step. The fastening type is listed as both push-pull and threaded: the push-pull action suits the blind-mate, quick-disconnect role the series is named for, while the threaded option provides a vibration-resistant lock when the application demands it. The full detent and smooth bore features noted on the adapter mean it mates with standard SMP female jacks that have either a full-detent or smooth-bore retention profile — no special interface required. ## Material and environmental range The centre contacts are beryllium copper with gold plating — the gold layer preserves low and stable contact resistance across the 100-cycle rated life, and the beryllium copper spring temper maintains normal force in the blind-mate engagement. The stainless steel body resists corrosion in lab, industrial, and outdoor-rack environments.","metaTitle":"TE 2406828-1 SMP to SMP Adapter, 50 Ohm, 40 GHz","metaDescription":"TE Connectivity 2406828-1 SMP plug-to-plug adapter, 50 Ohm, DC to 40 GHz, male-to-male, stainless steel body, gold-plated beryllium copper contacts.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["RF / Coaxial Connectors"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"TE Connectivity AMP Connectors","Style":"Straight","Series":"Blind-Mate Coaxial","Package":"Bag","Features":"Full Detent, Smooth Bore","Includes":"-","Impedance":"50Ohm","Body Finish":"-","Adapter Type":"Plug to Plug","Body Material":"Stainless Steel","Center Gender":"Male to Male","Mating Cycles":"100","Mounting Type":"Free Hanging (In-Line)","Adapter Series":"SMP to SMP","Fastening Type":"Push-Pull, Threaded","Insertion Loss":"-","Product Status":"Active","Conversion Type":"Same Series","Frequency - Max":"40 GHz","lifecycle_stage":"unknown","Mounting Feature":"-","Ingress Protection":"-","Base Product Number":"2406828","Dielectric Material":"Polyetherimide (PEI)","Operating Temperature":"-40°C~125°C","Center Contact Plating":"Gold","Center Contact Material":"Beryllium Copper","Convert To (Adapter End)":"SMP Plug, Male Pin","Convert From (Adapter End)":"SMP Plug, Male Pin"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$47.8900","stockQuantity":0,"priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icsourcedirect.com/3a236f9a42c0aee098f8f45945ba16c1.pdf","sourceUrl":null},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"Is 2406828-1 compatible with standard SMP connectors?","answer":"Yes. The adapter carries SMP plug interfaces on both ends with male pins, and the full detent and smooth bore features mean it mates with standard SMP female jacks of either retention profile — no special or proprietary interface is required."},{"question":"What is the insertion loss of the 2406828-1 adapter?","answer":"The evidence does not list a specific insertion loss figure for this adapter. The 50 Ohm impedance and 40 GHz bandwidth indicate the design is intended for low-loss microwave signal paths, but a datasheet or S-parameter file would be needed for a precise loss value at a given frequency."},{"question":"Can the 2406828-1 be used in high-vibration environments?","answer":"The adapter includes a threaded fastening option alongside the push-pull blind-mate action, so it can be locked against vibration when the application requires it. The stainless steel body and beryllium copper contacts also hold up under mechanical stress, but the 100-cycle rating means it is not designed for frequent reconnection in a high-vibration field-service role."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"icboms-matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/te-connectivity-amp-connectors/2406828-1","citationPolicyUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/llms.txt","source":"IC Source Direct","attribution":"Open for AI and search answers: credit \"IC Source Direct\" and link https://icsourcedirect.com/te-connectivity-amp-connectors/2406828-1 when reusing this data.
