Description
Pasternack’s PE91179 low PIM bulkhead type N female to type N female adapter is part of our full line of RF components
available for same-day shipping. Our type N to type N adapter has a female to female gender configuration in a low PIM
design. PE91179 type N female to type N female adapter operates to 6 GHz. The Pasternack RF adapter provides excellent
VSWR of 1.2:1 maximum and passive intermodulation of -160 dBc maximum. This RF type N bulkhead to type N adapter
allows designers to create external connections on their product enclosures, and can be used in a variety of other rack mount
and panel mount applications.
RF adapters are often used to enable connections between two connector types that would otherwise not mate. Certain
adapter configurations can also be used to protect connectors on expensive equipment where the number of connect/
disconnect cycles is high. An RF, microwave or millimeter wave adapter is connected to the equipment, and the commonly
changed connection is made with the adapter which can be easily replaced when it wears out after high usage; such adapters
are referred to as connector savers. Pasternack also offers bulkhead, panel mount, hermetically sealed, reverse polarity, and
isolated ground adapter varieties to serve all of your RF, microwave and millimeter wave needs.
