Southwest Microwave offers a broad family of SSBP multi-coax contacts and assemblies to address RF/microwave packaging miniaturization and flexibility challenges. These push-on coax contacts simplify interconnections and cabling while offering greater system reliability than the alternative of mating a large array of standard coax connectors. These SSBP coax contacts were designed to fit into standard off-the-shelf MIL-DLT-38999 and MIL-DTL-24308 D-Sub connectors and are interchangeable with standard signal contacts available in 20 HD, 20, 16, 12, 8 sizes to accommodate a variety of performance requirements.

Contact us for flexible cable assemblies and harnesses for OTS MIL-DTL-38999 series I, II, III, and IV or MIL-DTL-24308 D-sub connectors. All size 20 contacts are sold on cables.

The SM7000 Series microwave switching modules are members of the VXI Technology SMIPII™ family. They offer a modular design allowing custom switching configurations to be easily assembled and modified in the field.

The SM7000 is a single-wide, C-size VXI module, which can support up to six different microwave switches including: a dual SPDT; SP3T through SP6T; transfer switches and passthrough adapters that allow the module to control up to eight externally mounted relays each.

Introducing Southwest Microwave’s newest high-performance connector, the groundbreaking 0.8 mm (145 GHz) high-performance thread-in connector. This cutting-edge design ensures exceptional signal integrity while delivering the industry’s lowest VSWR, RF leakage, and insertion loss.

• Will mate with IEEE 287 & IEC 61169-64 standards
• DC to 145 GHz
• Field replaceable and reusable

Southwest Microwave offers a full range of within-series and between-series precision adapters with near-metrology grade performance. 

• High performing connector savers, DC to 110 GHz 
• Economical solution for critical production and testing 
• Approved for demanding environments such as Space and other Hi-Rel applications 
• High repeatability and accuracy

Southwest Microwave connectors and accessories are designed to be compatible with each other to assure electrical performance. Southwest Microwave cannot assure electrical performance when the accessories are used with a non-Southwest Microwave connector.

SuperMini Board-to-Board solutions optimize interconnect performance for board-to-board stacking applications.

Available bullets enable board-to-board spacing as close as 3 mm, assuring transmission line dependability for tightly stacked PCBs. Low mating insertion force allows for an increased density of interconnections per board. Unique bullet design enables extended mating and de-mating cycles.
