TNC Jack, 50 Ohm, IP68 — Bulkhead-Mount RF Connector
The Molex 0732162241 is a TNC jack, female socket, part of the 73216 series, designed for 50 Ohm RF systems. The threaded fastening type provides a vibration-resistant mate — standard for TNC interfaces in high-shock environments.
500 V Rating and Dielectric
The 500 V voltage rating, combined with a PTFE dielectric, supports moderate-power RF signals and DC bias injection through the same coax line. PTFE's low loss tangent and stable dielectric constant maintain 50 Ohm impedance across the temperature range.
Kit Contents and Mounting
The lockwasher prevents the nut from backing off under vibration — a detail that saves a separate hardware order when panel-mounting. The bulkhead front-side nut mounting feature means the connector installs from the outside of the panel, typical for enclosure feed-throughs.
