The 50 Ohm impedance is standard for nearly all RF system chains, so it matches directly to 50 Ohm line components, cables, and instruments. ## Cable Termination and Shield This jack is designed for 3.3mm coaxial cable — a common diameter for RG-type cables like RG174 or RG316. The shield is crimped, the centre conductor soldered. Crimp termination is faster and more repeatable than solder-braid methods for production runs, and the gold centre contact plating maintains low contact resistance through repeated mates. The threaded fastening (SMA standard) gives a positive mechanical lock against vibration loosening. Bulkhead mounting with a front-side nut means the jack installs from the outside of the panel — the threaded body passes through the cutout and a nut tightens from the rear. This keeps the connector flange flush on the front face, which is typical for front-panel test ports or antenna bulkheads where a clean exterior is needed. The gold-plated brass body resists corrosion in humid or salt-spray environments, and the single-port design keeps the footprint compact. ## Comparing to Sibling SMA Jacks Against the 901-10735 (SMA plug, female socket, solder shield), the 901-10736 is a jack rather than a plug — a panel-mount fixed port versus a cable-end plug. The 901-10745 is a higher-frequency sibling at 26.5 GHz but uses RG-405 (.085\" semi-rigid) cable and solder shield termination, so it is not a cable-group swap. The 901-10743 is a nickel-body IP67-rated jack for RG-316 double-braid cable at 6 GHz. For a standard 3.3mm coax run at 20 GHz, the 901-10736 is the direct fit.","metaTitle":"Amphenol RF 901-10736 SMA Jack, 20 GHz, 50 Ohm, Bulkhead","metaDescription":"Amphenol RF 901-10736 SMA jack, female socket, 50 Ohm impedance, 20 GHz max frequency, 500 mating cycles, gold-plated brass body, bulkhead front-side nut","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["RF / Coaxial Connectors","RF Cable Assemblies"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"Amphenol RF","Series":"SMA","Package":"Bag","Features":"-","Includes":"-","Impedance":"50Ohm","Body Finish":"Gold","Cable Group":"3.3mm Coaxial Cable","Body Material":"Brass","Housing Color":"Gold","Mating Cycles":"500","Mounting Type":"Panel Mount","Connector Type":"Jack, Female Socket","Fastening Type":"Threaded","Insertion Loss":"-","Product Status":"Active","Connector Style":"SMA","Frequency - Max":"20 GHz","Number of Ports":"1","lifecycle_stage":"unknown","Mounting Feature":"Bulkhead - Front Side Nut","Ingress Protection":"-","Shield Termination":"Crimp","Base Product Number":"901-10","Contact Termination":"Solder","Dielectric Material":"Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)","Operating Temperature":"-65°C~165°C","Center Contact Plating":"Gold","Center Contact Material":"Beryllium Copper"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$13.9500","stockQuantity":19,"priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icsourcedirect.com/2ab28b42197bcd3a90ca5b0958d67c2d.pdf","sourceUrl":null},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What cable group does 901-10736 use?","answer":"The 901-10736 is designed for 3.3mm coaxial cable — a common diameter that covers cables like RG174 and RG316.
