Radio-frequency connectors - Part 74: Sectional specification for HN series RF coaxial connectors with screw coupling - Characteristic impedance 50 Ω

Scope

IEC 61169-74:2025, which is a Sectional Specification (SS), provides information and rules for the preparation of Detail Specifications (DS) for series HN RF coaxial connectors with screw coupling with a characteristic impedance of 50 Ω.

This document prescribes mating face dimensions for high performance connectors (grade 2), dimensional details of standard test connectors (grade 0), gauging information and tests selected from IEC 61169-1, applicable to all Detail Specifications relating to series HN RF connectors.

This document indicates recommended performance characteristics which are considered when writing a Detail Specification and it covers test schedules and inspection requirements for assessment levels M and H.

The series HN connectors are intended to be used in microwave transmission systems and can be connected with all kinds of RF cables and microstrips. The operating frequency is up to 6 GHz.
