Description
The Andrew Commscope 78EZDF is a 7-16 DIN Female EZfit RF connector designed for use with 7/8 inch coaxial cables including AVA5-50, AVA5-50FX, and FXL-780. This straight-body connector is used in DAS, cellular, wireless infrastructure, base station, broadband, antenna, and telecom applications where a rugged 50 Ohm RF connection is required.
The 78EZDF features a captivated inner contact, silver inner contact plating, clamp-style outer contact attachment, and Trimetal outer contact plating. It supports operation from 0 to 5000 MHz and is engineered for high-performance RF deployments requiring strong return loss, low insertion loss, high peak power handling, and reliable field installation.
This connector is rated for IP68 immersion protection and IP66 water jetting protection when mated. It is RoHS, UK-RoHS, and REACH-SVHC compliant, making it suitable for carrier-grade DAS, cellular, and wireless infrastructure applications.
