The SM5723 is a straight, 50 Ohm bulkhead adapter that provides a TNC female to TNC female connection. It operates over a frequency range from DC to 12 GHz with a maximum VSWR of 1.35:1, ensuring good signal integrity. The adapter features gold-plated beryllium copper contacts, meets MIL-STD-348 interface specifications, and is rated for a minimum of 500 mating cycles. Its hermetic seal of 1x10^-5 cc/sec prevents gas leakage, making it ideal for creating external connections on enclosures used in high-pressure, vacuum test environments, or other rack and panel mount applications.
