Coaxial connector DELOCK 88857 RP-TNC, nickel-plated contacts, silver, 20×20×37.3 mm

DELOCK 88857 RP-TNC coaxial connector is designed for reliable RF signal connections in radio frequency systems. The connector has nickel-plated contacts for improved corrosion resistance and a silver-coloured body with compact dimensions of 20 × 20 × 37.3 mm. Packaged in a polybag, this RP-TNC connector is intended for installation in wireless equipment, antennas, laboratory test setups and for repair or prototyping of RF components.

Advantages

The RP-TNC connector provides a standardized interface for RF cabling and components, ensuring compatibility with equipment that accepts RP-TNC terminations. Nickel-plated contacts reduce the risk of oxidation and maintain low contact resistance over time. The small, lightweight housing allows installation in tight spaces and on compact devices. The silver-coloured finish offers neutral aesthetics and basic surface protection without adding significant bulk.

How to use

To use this RP-TNC coaxial connector, align the connector with the mating RP-TNC receptacle and gently screw or push it into place according to the mating part design. Ensure contacts are clean and free from debris before connection to maintain low signal loss. When installing on equipment or cables, verify mechanical fit and torque as appropriate for the application to avoid damaging threads or contacts. For laboratory use, connect the RP-TNC to compatible test instruments or adapters as required by the measurement setup.

Recommendations

Store the connector in a dry environment to preserve the nickel-plated contacts. Avoid overtightening during installation; use only the torque recommended for small RF connectors. For long-term outdoor installations, consider additional environmental protection or an alternative connector with specialized plating if exposure to harsh conditions is expected.
