Revolutionizing Connectivity: Amphenol's Next-Generation Hardline Connectors
Solve Deployment & Maintenance Challenges for Today's Networks
Contact UsAmphenol’s new hardline connectors address the key deployment and ongoing maintenance challenges of today’s most commonly used connectors.
Despite a desire to move to all-fiber networks, practicality forces service providers to continue to invest heavily in hardline copper infrastructure. While some vendors are satisfied to continue to supply the same ”bread & butter” hardline products that have contributed to their bottom line for years, Amphenol continues to innovate.
Benefits:
- Easy installation, especially in tight or difficult installation site
- Prevents cable from turning during installation
- Applies uniform grip and correct pressure to the cable center conductor when tightening connector it reduces risk of intermodulation distortion (IMD)
- Extremely resistant to chemical, salt, oils and pollutants
- Minimizes noise in any environment
- Especially useful in tight or difficult installation sites, no need for torque wrench

Why Brass?
Brass does not experience Galling - An adhesive wear on sliding metallic surfaces (Sometimes referred to as “Cold Weld”)
Unlike softer aluminum, brass provides operational threads even after over-torquing or side-loading
Less likely to damage internal threads of housing during side-loading
Clean disassembly without introduction of metal into cable

Pin Connectors – Enhanced Seizing Design:
- Compact and slim
- Easy transitions for Heat Shrink
- Enhanced non-destructive seizing doesn’t break through cladding for superior performance at higher frequencies

Extensions
- 3” and 6” Extensions have a full-length center pin
- Eliminates reflections within the extension and properly passes AC
- Multiple wrench flats along extension for hard-to-reach areas
- Common Middle Nut/Backnut/ and cable prep with
- Pin Connectors
