Common Connector Types for RF Passive Components
Jun , 10 2025
In the world of RF passive components—such as couplers, attenuators, splitters, and terminators—RF connectors play a crucial role in ensuring signal integrity, mechanical reliability, and ease of integration. Choosing the right connector is essential for system performance, especially in 4G/5G base stations, DAS (Distributed Antenna Systems), and other high-frequency communication systems. Below, ...

Understanding Low PIM in RF Passive Components: Why It Matters
Jul , 17 2025
What is PIM and Why "Low" PIM is Critical? PIM stands for Passive Intermodulation, a form of signal distortion that occurs when two or more high-power RF signals mix within a passive component—such as connectors, cables, power splitters, couplers, or antennas—and create unwanted interference at new frequencies. These new frequencies can degrade system performance, reduce data throughput, and affec...
