Frequently Asked Questions
What characteristic impedance does 73415-3593 support, and why does it matter for RF system design?
The Molex 73415-3593 is rated at 50 Ω characteristic impedance, which is the universal standard for RF coaxial systems including test equipment, base stations, and microwave assemblies. Maintaining 50 Ω throughout the connector interface prevents signal reflections that would degrade return loss, especially at frequencies above 1 GHz.
How does the 6 mΩ contact resistance of 73415-3593 affect insertion loss in high-frequency designs?
At 6 mΩ contact resistance, the Molex 73415-3593 introduces minimal resistive loss at the mating interface. For DC to low-GHz applications, 6 mΩ translates to a negligible voltage drop at typical RF signal levels, preserving signal amplitude and phase integrity across the 50 Ω coaxial path.
When sourcing 73415-3593 for a production RF module, what lead time should procurement plan for?
The factory lead time for Molex 73415-3593 is 10 weeks. Procurement teams building production schedules for RF modules should account for this 10-week lead time when setting safety stock levels, particularly for programs with quarterly build cycles or uncertain demand where stock-outs could halt assembly.
For which RF frequency bands and connector system families does the SMP interface of 73415-3593 qualify?
The SMP (Sub-Miniature Push-on) interface is standardized per MIL-STD and IEC specifications and is commonly used in systems operating from DC to 40 GHz, with connector body precision determining the upper frequency limit. Molex SMP connectors like the 73415-3593 are intermateable with SMP receptacles from other qualified suppliers, simplifying second-source procurement.
