The Code F keying (violet colour) is part of the Fakra standard's colour-coding scheme — it prevents cross-mating with other Fakra variants in a multi-connector harness. A Code F plug only mates with a Code F receptacle, so confirm the mating half carries the same code before specifying. Rated for 100 mating cycles, the gold-plated brass centre contact and tin-plated zinc die cast body handle the reconnect duty of field-serviceable automotive telematics units, infotainment modules, and antenna feeds. ## Signal Path and Mechanical Fit Insertion loss is specified at 0.3 dB — the link budget figure for path loss through the connector at frequency. For a 6 GHz signal, the 0.3 dB loss is within what a typical automotive antenna-to-module run can absorb without a repeater. No separate ferrule or crimp ring needed. Centre contact termination is also solder — the male pin solders to the PCB signal trace. The brass centre pin with gold plating maintains low contact resistance and resists corrosion in humid environments without needing a separate environmental seal at the contact level.","metaTitle":"FA1-NFRP-PCB-8 Fakra Plug, 50 Ohm, 6 GHz, Right-Angle","metaDescription":"FA1-NFRP-PCB-8 SMB/Fakra plug, male pin, 50 Ohm, 6 GHz max, 0.3 dB insertion loss.

The FA1-NFRP-PCB-8 package includes 2 pieces — 1 connector and 1 housing. The housing is the brown nut that mates with the Fakra receptacle; the connector body carries the male pin and PCB termination. One order code covers both parts."},{"question":"What is the mating connector for FA1-NFRP-PCB-8?","answer":"The FA1-NFRP-PCB-8 mates with a Fakra Code F receptacle (female jack) of the same keying colour. The mating half is a board-mount or cable-mount Fakra jack with a Code F keyway — typically an Amphenol RF FA1 series receptacle with the matching F code. The locking ramp on the plug engages the receptacle latch for vibration-proof retention."},{"question":"What is the insertion loss of FA1-NFRP-PCB-8?","answer":"Insertion loss is 0.3 dB across the rated frequency range. This is the signal power lost as the RF wave passes through the connector interface and the right-angle PCB launch. For a 6 GHz automotive antenna feed, 0.3 dB is within the typical link budget margin."},{"question":"What does Code F mean on FA1-NFRP-PCB-8?","answer":"Code F is the Fakra keying code, corresponding to the violet colour in the standard Fakra colour-coding scheme. It ensures the plug only mates with a Code F receptacle, preventing cross-mating with other Fakra variants (A, B, C, D, E, G, H, I, K) in a multi-connector harness. Always match the code on both halves."},{"question":"Is FA1-NFRP-PCB-8 a male or female connector?","answer":"The connector style is SMB, Fakra — a push-on RF interface with a locking ramp. The male pin solders to the PCB, and the housing nut provides the mechanical mate to the female receptacle."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"icboms-matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/amphenol/FA1-NFRP-PCB-8","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/amphenol/FA1-NFRP-PCB-8 when reusing this data.
