    摘要: A cluster connector and cluster port for simultaneously engaging multiple RF connectors with a corresponding plurality of RF ports, wherein the cluster port may be coupled to an RF antenna or radio. The cluster port has a plurality of receiving interfaces wherein each of the receiving interfaces has an axial biasing element that enables simultaneous connection with a plurality of coupling interfaces, wherein each of the coupling interfaces is coupled to the end of an RF cable. The cluster connector of the disclosure also enables selective removal, replacement of one RF cable, and the corresponding coupling interface, without impacting other cables/coupling interfaces.

    摘要: A compression connector comprises a connector body comprising an inner surface and a threaded clamp at least partially positioned within the connector body and configured to slide relative to the connector body. A contact cone is positioned within the connector body and comprises an outer surface configured to engage with the inner surface of the connector body. An insulator is positioned proximate the contact cone and defines an aperture. An inner conductor comprises a contact component comprising an inner conductor basket and a cylindrical portion extending from the conductor basket, and an interface component defining an opening configured to engage with the cylindrical portion of the contact component. The contact component, the interface component, and the insulator are held together such that they form a rigid three-piece assembly when the threaded clamp couples an end of a cable.

    摘要: An RF compression connector includes a simplified clamp mechanism having a common clamp base, and a plurality of segments disposed on the common clamp base wherein the segments include alternating first and second retention members disposed along the circumference of the clamp, wherein each of the first retention members has an outwardly projecting shoulder to engage a connector body and each of the second retention members includes an inwardly projecting shoulder to engage an outer jacket of a coaxial cable connector. The first and second retention members of the clamp mechanism inhibit separation of the connector body relative to the coaxial cable.

    摘要: A transparent broadband antenna has two conductive leaves that are configured to be axially symmetric about two orthogonal axes. The transparent broadband antenna is designed as having two back-to-back Vivaldi radiators and four identically curved outer corners. The back-to-back Vivaldi radiators provide high performance from 617 MHz through 7 GHz while preventing return waves that may cause impedance mismatch. The antenna further comprises a feed structure that enables direct coupling from an RF cable to the two conductive leads, obviating the need for a matching circuit and subsequent bandwidth limitations.

    摘要: A clamp mechanism for an RF cluster connector enables multiple RF connections within a cluster connector to be engaged and disengaged in such a way that prevents damage to the conductors. It also eases the process of engaging and disengaging through the use of two lever arms that may be easily used by a technician in challenging locations (such as at the top of a cell tower) and in densely arranged RF ports (such as for a multi-user or massive MIMO antenna).
