This makes the connector field-serviceable for prototype runs or repair, though the solder joint must be inspected for voids to avoid impedance bumps above 10 GHz. Shield termination is also solder, so the braid is soldered to the shell body for a low-inductance ground path. ## Mating and Cycle Life The beryllium copper center contact retains its spring force over that life, and the gold-on-gold mating surfaces prevent fretting corrosion. The threaded coupling nut on the mating plug (standard SMA male) provides vibration-resistant retention — no lock-wiring needed for most rack or panel applications. ## Comparing Termination Styles: Solder Cup vs. Solder Tab The sibling 901-2PF100000AE is electrically identical — same 50 Ohm impedance, 18 GHz bandwidth, stainless steel body, and 500-cycle rating — but uses a solder tab instead of a solder cup for center contact termination. The solder tab is a flat lug that the cable center conductor is soldered to, which can simplify strain relief when using a heat-shrink boot. The 901-1GA200000AE's solder cup is more common for direct cable termination without additional hardware. Both are active and panel-mount with flange.","metaTitle":"901-1GA200000AE SMA Jack, 50 Ohm, 18 GHz, Panel Mount Flange","metaDescription":"Amphenol 901-1GA200000AE SMA jack, female socket, 50 Ohm, DC-18 GHz, 500 mating cycles, gold-plated stainless steel body, solder cup termination.","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":"-","Package":"Bulk","Features":"-","Includes":"-","Impedance":"50 Ohms","Body Finish":"Gold","Cable Group":"-","Body Material":"Stainless Steel","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":"18 GHz","Number of Ports":"1","lifecycle_stage":"unknown","Mounting Feature":"Flange","Ingress Protection":"-","Shield Termination":"Solder","Base Product Number":"901-1G","Contact Termination":"Solder Cup","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":"$14.5100","stockQuantity":22,"priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icsourcedirect.com/f67055cb978bd2c8d79456c1b5f411dc.pdf","sourceUrl":null},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the mating plug for 901-1GA200000AE?","answer":"It mates with any standard SMA male plug (pin contact) with threaded coupling.
