That frequency ceiling covers the full L-band through Ku-band, including most Wi-Fi, cellular backhaul, and satellite downlink bands — the connector itself does not limit the signal path up to 18 GHz. ## What the 18 GHz and 500-Cycle Ratings Mean The 18 GHz max frequency is the 1 dB compression point for the interface — above that, return loss degrades and the connector becomes a mismatch in the line. For a 50 Ohm system, staying below 18 GHz keeps the VSWR within spec. The stainless steel body and threaded fastening add mechanical durability for panel-mount installations where the cable is handled. ## Panel Mount with Flange — Installation Context The threaded body and flange let you torque the connector to a panel without rotating the center contact — important for maintaining the 50 Ohm launch geometry. The contact termination is also solder — the center pin is soldered to the coax center conductor. This is a field-terminable style, not a crimp; it requires a soldering iron and heat-shrink for the cable entry.","metaTitle":"Amphenol RF 901-2PF100000AE SMA Jack, 50 Ohm, 18 GHz","metaDescription":"Amphenol RF 901-2PF100000AE SMA jack, female socket, 50 Ohm impedance, 18 GHz max frequency, panel mount with flange, gold-plated beryllium copper contact, 500","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":"-","Cable Group":"-","Body Material":"Stainless Steel","Housing Color":"-","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":"901-2P","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":"$10.8400","stockQuantity":15,"priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icsourcedirect.com/96a805694852d305dbe52d71a78b2c5d.pdf","sourceUrl":null},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the frequency range of 901-2PF100000AE?","answer":"The connector is rated to 18 GHz maximum frequency, with a 50 Ohm impedance.
