Right-angle U.FL plug for tight cable routing
The Hirose U.FL-LPHF6-066N1-A-100 is a U.FL (UMCC) series plug, female socket configuration, designed for free-hanging in-line use with a right-angle cable exit. The right-angle body lets the coaxial cable run parallel to the board or panel surface — useful when vertical clearance is tight or the cable needs to tuck against the chassis. Snap-on fastening gives a positive click on mate without needing a threaded coupling nut, so field swaps are quick. The 100 V voltage rating covers the DC bias lines that sometimes ride on the center conductor in active antenna feeds. The phosphor bronze body carries a silver finish.
What the 6 GHz and 50 Ohm ratings mean for signal integrity
A 50 Ohm connector at the interface keeps the signal path continuous without a reflection at the junction. The 6 GHz max frequency means the connector geometry and dielectric maintain a controlled impedance up through the C-band; above that, the parasitic capacitance at the snap-on interface starts to roll off the return loss. For sub-6 GHz applications (2.4, 5 GHz WiFi, GNSS, LTE), this plug is well within its design envelope.
Mating and cable assembly fit
Termination is solder: the center contact and outer braid are soldered to the cable. The free-hanging, right-angle body means the cable exits at 90° to the connector axis, which is the typical orientation for routing coax along a PCB edge or inside a handheld device enclosure.
