IP68 Waterproof Connectors and Adapters

SMPM and SMP Compression Connectors

Introducing the Johnson waterproof interconnect family consisting of a rugged design for

harsh environments. All products meet industry-leading IP68 standards. The parts are

designed with internal gaskets along with an outer gasket. They are waterproof in an unmated

condition and designed for underwater applications including mil-aero, transportation, oil &

gas, marine and Industrial IoT. The part range consists of RF jack and plug connectors and

adapters in the SMA, TNC, MCX and MMCX families. Available in stainless steel and brass.

Features

• The SMA family operates up to 18 GHz.

• The TNC family are larger and more rugged, and operate to 11 GHz.

• Adapters include hermetically sealed connectors to 1 x 10-8 cc/sec, making them ideal

for high pressure, vacuum applications and the prevention of liquid or gas leakage.

• Ingress Protection ratings are used to specify the environmental protection of enclosures

and casings around electronic products.

• IP86 devices backed by an international standard rating of IP68 are deemed fit enough to

withstand dust, dirt and sand, and are resistant to submersion up to a maximum depth of

1.5m underwater for up to thirty minutes.

Applications

• Satellite communication equipment and base stations

• Remote monitoring communication

• Cable broadcast equipment

• GPS antennas
