SMA M RG 59 CRIMP

• Preparation:
• Strip the Cable: Carefully strip the RG-59 cable to expose the inner conductor and the shield. Ensure the stripped lengths are accurate and that you don’t damage the dielectric material or the conductors.
  Prepare the Connector: The SMA connector for RG-59 typically consists of a body with a central pin (for the conductor) and a crimp ring or ferrule for the shield.
  Crimping Steps:
• Insert the Central Conductor: Insert the stripped inner conductor of the RG-59 cable into the central pin of the SMA connector. Ensure it fits properly and that there’s good contact.
  Crimp the Central Pin: Use a crimping tool to compress the crimp ring around the central pin, securing the inner conductor in place. This creates a strong electrical connection.
  Prepare the Shield: Fold back the shield of the RG-59 cable so that it makes contact with the connector’s body.
  Crimp the Shield: Slide the crimp ferrule (or ring) over the shield and use the crimping tool to compress it, securing the shield to the connector’s body. This ensures proper grounding and signal shielding.
  Final Steps:

Inspect the Connection: Check that the crimped connections are secure and that there are no loose parts or visible damage.
Test the Connection: If possible, test the assembly with appropriate equipment to ensure that it performs well and maintains signal integrity.
Applications:
SMA-to-RG-59 crimped assemblies are used in various RF and video applications where a secure and reliable connection is needed, but soldering is either not possible or not preferred.
