Description
The Andrew F1TDM-C is a 7-16 DIN Male straight RF connector designed for use with 1/4 inch FSJ1-50A HELIAX Superflex coaxial cable. This 50 Ohm connector is used in DAS, cellular, wireless infrastructure, antenna feed, broadband, and telecom applications where a rugged low-loss RF connection is required.
According to the current Andrew datasheet, the F1TDM-C features a captivated inner contact, silver inner contact plating, self-clamping outer contact attachment, and Trimetal outer contact plating. It supports operation from 0 to 6000 MHz, provides strong return loss and VSWR performance, and offers IP68 immersion protection when mated.
