The solderless compression-mounted 2.4 mm coaxial connector from Hirose is ideal for applications in lab equipment, test equipment, characterization boards, and high-speed backplanes for data/computing and network analyzers. The H2.4 series meets the MIL-STD-348B standard and supports up to 50 GHz.

Featuring a solder less compression-screw-mount design, the high-bandwidth H2.4 series coaxial connector simplifies the assembly process and provides several electrical and mechanical advantages over soldered versions.  Using traditional soldered through-hole design, signal reflection is created by the stub protruding through the board. However, the H2.4 compression-mounted connector has a center contact mounted flush with the PCB, eliminating the stub, reducing signal reflection. The H2.4 series also optimizes design flexibility as it can be used with PCB boards of various thicknesses (1.6 mm minimum). In addition, the connector is reusable and can be attached and removed to boards for multiple uses, saving time and costs.
