N series RF connectors are 50 ohm constant impedance connectors with a consistently low VSWR across its frequency range of 0 to 11GHz. They are high quality medium size connector standard used with coaxial cables from .350" to .450" OD, but designs can also accommodate .078" to .875" cables.
N type connectors are threaded and gasketed for weatherproof operation. The threaded coupling incurs low noise and withstands shock and vibration. They are not matable with the 50 ohm connectors. The N series connector is the most popular medium sized connector. Applications include test and measurement, antennae, base stations, transmitters, etc.
