SMP Connectors FAQ

Common questions about SMP connector performance, blind-mate applications and customization.

What is the difference between SMP and SMA connectors?
SMP connectors use a compact push-on interface, while SMA connectors use threaded coupling. SMP is commonly used in high-density RF modules and blind-mate applications where quick connections and compact size are important.
What frequency range can SMP connectors support?
SMP connectors are commonly used in high-frequency RF applications. The supported frequency range depends on the connector design, materials and mating configuration. Contact us for model-specific frequency and performance specifications.
Are SMP connectors suitable for blind-mate applications?
Yes. SMP connectors can support blind-mate connections in compact RF modules and high-density assemblies. Suitable configurations may accommodate limited radial and axial misalignment, depending on the connector design and mating arrangement.
What is the difference between Full Detent, Limited Detent and Smooth Bore SMP connectors?
These configurations offer different mating and retention characteristics. Full Detent provides higher retention, Limited Detent offers reduced retention for easier disengagement, and Smooth Bore is designed for low-retention applications. The appropriate type depends on the mating requirements and mechanical design.
Can LWMC RF provide custom SMP connectors and cable assemblies?
Yes. LWMC RF supports custom SMP connector configurations and cable assemblies based on project requirements, including mounting styles, cable interfaces, mechanical dimensions and RF performance. Share your drawings or specifications with us for evaluation.
