The TE Connectivity 5226601-3 is a mini UHF receptacle with a female socket interface, designed for panel-mount RF applications where a compact, threaded interconnect is needed. It is the 1-port member of the mini UHF series, using a zinc body with nickel finish and a polymethylpentene (PMP) dielectric. The connector is rated to 2 GHz maximum frequency and 335 V, with a non-constant impedance — meaning it is not a controlled-impedance 50-ohm design like a BNC or TNC, but a general-purpose UHF-style interface for lower-frequency RF and signal duty. The center contact is phosphor bronze with tin plating, terminated via solder cup — a straightforward field-termination method that works with a soldering iron and heat shrink.
This receptacle mounts through a panel hole and is secured by the flange. The shield is terminated to the chassis via solder tabs on the flange. The solder cup center contact accepts stranded wire; the extended insulation feature provides extra dielectric creepage distance.
