SMA jack for RG-178 and RG-196 cable assemblies
Rated to 18 GHz with a 335 V voltage rating, it covers the full L-band through Ku-band for signal routing in RF front-ends and lab equipment.
TE Connectivity lists the 1-2081205-1 as Obsolete. If a pin-compatible replacement is needed, the cable group (RG-178/196) and 50 Ohm impedance are the fixed constraints; verify the mating half interface (SMA threaded) and body finish before substituting.
What mates and what to check before ordering
This SMA jack mates with any standard SMA male plug (threaded coupling, per MIL-STD-348 interface). The nickel-plated zinc body provides RF shielding but is not rated for salt-fog or immersion — keep it inside an enclosure or weatherproof housing.
